This feature is blocking bug 4698 which is an annoying problem that I'd really like to get fixed.

This sounds to me like 'division through zero doesn't make sense, but i've still got the right to do it'. Really, if anybody is ever going to release 1.0 and 1.0.0 along each other, that person is completely on crack. You can't do 2/0, either can you have 1.0 and 1.0.0 being different versions. They should be the same. That being said, which one is higher? > Tag on a (.0)* implicitly, you open up potential issues like above.
