It sounds like you intend to test which versions are compatible with each other and maintain a list the client can use to reject the setting of force-version when set to an incompatible version. If that’s the case, why not just have the handshake look at that list and automatically connect with any versions that it is known to be compatible with? Then you wouldn’t even have to set the property.
