Hello,
I prefer the individual package versioning too.
What I have experienced over time is that single packages sometimes
are separated out into separate distributions and due to the nature of
the Perl package name spacing, a version number should be at least
present.
Nothing speaks against not doing this until actual separation time,
but I must admit I prefer packages having separate life cycles and
version history since a distribution is just a matter of packaging and
upon installation, distributions do seem to dissolve into the
filesystem as separate packages only related in their coupling.

Let me speak against this. I find non-uniform version numbers a
pain. Version 123 of Foo::Bar::Baz is associated with what version
of Foo::Bar? Arggh!
