Just did a few minutes googling on this: some brands are working on this already (or actually even have it) : usually some combination of having the ordinary tail lights, rear fog lights and/or emergency lights come on as well in case of hard braking, or having the third brake light flash, for example. Apparently the MB S-Class has all its brake lights and emergency lights flash in case of emergency braking since 2012.

Volvo
Mercedes
So apparently this is old news. Would of course be good if there was some industry consensus/standard on the subject (for example if ABS works for more than 0.5 seconds, emergency lights and third brake light flash very quickly, in addition to other brake lights on of course). But anyway there are apparently more intelligent people working on this so we'll see what becomes the standard!
@JeffK insists that we don't go 'back' on the third braking light. I can understand that idea and upon reflexion agree with it (given that we, over the last 25 years, have become used to the third brake light coming on whenever someone in an ICE car hits the brakes, however hard) but still I think there should be a difference in brake light signals between simply using "Tesla-high-regen" (i.e. not applying the brakes at all - 'ordinary' brake light signal), using the brakes in addition to regen (more prominent signal), and slamming those brakes (berserk signal). If Tesla's software could manage this in terms of amount of deceleration (in G's) instead of whether or not (and how hard) you're applying the brakes, even better!
