Perl has a nice  http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/use.html use  directive to
verify the current Perl version: "use v5.6.1;"

With Gradle changes introduced in milestone-4 ("You should use the
idea.project.jdkName". "You should use the idea.module.downloadSources".
"You should use the idea.module.downloadJavadoc" ) which are not backward
compatible with milestone-3 it probably makes sense to introduce a similar
directive to Gradle.

Something like 

apply gradle: '1.0-milestone-4'

Similar to
http://maven.apache.org/enforcer/enforcer-rules/requireMavenVersion.html.

This will make sure Gradle is at least of the version specified or newer,
depends on how rigid the verification can be and if it allows 
http://maven.apache.org/enforcer/enforcer-rules/versionRanges.html
upper/lower bounds . It will also answer questions like "What Gradle version
do I need to run this build" ?
