I'd like to know if there is a use case for the existing behavior. I don't
really have an opinion if this should be enabled optionally or by default
(or via policy) yet.

I've griped about this for a while. So much that I even started working on
a patch for the issue back when I had some free time last year (but never
finished). What little time I have these days to spend on CMake I choose to
spend on supporting find modules, so if anyone wants to take this over... It
was one approach for how to solve the version number problem...
