## # version:
Each plugin may carry its own version number:
# version: 0.5
Which makes sense as features progress individually of the main application.
It's the whole point of plugin systems to provide independent functionality.
* Often it suffices to use MINOR.MAJOR schemes.
* For larger plugins the more common SEMVER versioning might make sense
still.
* Patch versions etc. however shouldn't be part of the `version:` field.
Instead one can use [state:](wiki/state) or [support:](wiki/support) to expand
on the current code quality/completion.
