Do we really need to draw it anywhere, could just drop the version requirement 
:). Don't think the Vagrantfile relies on anything recently introduced?
I used a 1.7.x version not too long ago for example.
My point is that this breaks the user's experience if he has to upgrade Vagrant 
install for no good reason. Vagrant seems to be the install-and-forget kind of 
software which you don't really upgrade.

No strong opinion which versions to require exactly, just wanted to bring it up 
as a possible pain point.
Another thing I suggest is to base it on the latest LTS release, having a 
bigger chance for it to be already downloaded.
