If I may ask, what do you feel is the issue with pkg:/ ?

It doesn't strike me as having anything to do with the version, and so
using it to anchor the version doesn't make much sense.  Also, more
concretely, what if I want to add a package from a specific authority,
but want the version to float in a limited range?

My problem with using a flag was that it then makes exact matching dependent upon the command instead of the syntax. I also assumed that when you specified an authority, you didn't want to float in a limited range.

Does anyone have better suggestions for a syntax alternative?

It seems far easier to me to assume exact match, and then only float versions if told to...
