I don't normaly like to waste bandwidth on "Me Too's" but this one's
important and if additional voices will help, add mine!  The X.X.X
numbering convention is easy to follow and doesn't require any special or
privileged knowledge of a product's upgrade history.  The "Update 2,"
"XYZ patch", etc. etc. creates support and troubleshooting anarchy,
especially if all version information is not readily displayed in the
"version" field of the "get info" window.

Please be real clear on these versions and clear on what's posted for
download.  I already downloaded 4.5.3 twice because I mistakenly got the
impression that the 4.5.3 bugs reported on this list had been corrected
and that the corrected version was available for download(I now see that
will be Monday).  Pure sequential version numbering will help keep us all
sane.  Thanks.
