With that regex yes, it's a nice way to control upgrade to major versions.
And it also preventing upgrade of a package if someone should run apt 
dist-upgrade (equivalent to yum upgrade)


My file for Gitlab looks like this

$ more /etc/apt/preferences.d/gitlab 
Package: gitlab-ce
Pin: version /[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.([5-9]-|[0-9]{2,}-)/
Pin-Priority: 1000

It only upgrade if the package is x.y.5 or higher, the reason for this is 
Gitlab tends to be very buggy until around x.y.5 version is released.
