OK.

There's one other technical issue: how to handle bugfixes and security
updates?

One of the issues with "whole number" releases is that distros are
likely to include a specific version.  We'll need some way for packagers
to pull in things like security updates, and the way packaging systems
-- including containers -- work, that expects some kind of major/minor
version number.

I realize that's not how Cockpit releases work, but we need an answer
which will be acceptable to packagers.
