I agree with all Juha's points (but I would, wouldn't I!). Maybe we need to decouple the package versions (which are very useful to link to the upstream versions, and have to be monotonically increasing to make sure builds and installs work) from user-visible versions. If we had a separate field for the user-visible version (like we do for name) I would probably use something like: "2.7 2009/10/30" instead of the long version string I use in the package.
