This is exactly what I forsee... but as I understand the current plan
of implementation, there is no mechanism for them to specify anything
other than the version that they've hard-coded into the document, and
that can only support one scheme per document.  I guess that I was
just advocating that the alternate versification support a mechanism
for the module creator to manually create any alternative mappings
that they wanted from the very beginning rather than waiting to
provide that functionality in the future.  Just my preference. :)
