Thank you for pointing this out. I think it would be great to be forward 
compatible. 
Right now one could use a heuristic such as for every hash the key has the 
"hash" string in its name.
This information might not be sufficient, however, since it would be great to 
have some kind of ordering between the generated hashes, so a tool could choose 
the latest (and possibly greatest) one.

A third alternative would be to have both semantic names (containing hash) and 
a number suffix which indicates the ordering.
