This is simply not the way we decided to work in.  Can it be 
changed?  Sure.  Should it be changed?  In my humble opinion, no, it shouldn't.
The thing I'm trying to state, not very successfully I guess, is that 
whether it's 4.0.7 or 4.666.3, we should be avoiding API changes as much as 
at all possible.  Sure, sometimes there's just no alternative than to break 
downwards compatibility, but we should not get into the state of mind that 
breaking downwards compatibility is ok, as long as you increment some digit 
in the version number.
