That seems like a recipe for version number hyper-inflation to me. In no time 
at all we will be into double figures for version numbers - perhaps even 
triple before the end of the decade! It can't be allowed - if nothing else 
firebird stands for prudent version numbering. We must resist this 
temptation - look where it got firefox.
