Though you could use prerelease and/or build suffixes (1.2.3-0w

These are very close to what I would like to see.
Though, if I understand correctly, build suffix wouldn't work, as
for example 1.2.3+0w and 1.2.3+1w would be treated as equal:
"Build metadata SHOULD be ignored when determining version
precedence. Thus two versions that differ only in the build
metadata, have the same precedence." (semver.org)
I guess that prerelease suffixes would do the trick. The only
problem is conceptual: "A pre-release version indicates that the
version is unstable and might not satisfy the intended
compatibility requirements as denoted by its associated normal
version." (semver.org)
