One main point is that a major/minor scheme allows for compatibility. Given that we are moving more and more to have plugins do more and extending things, versioning is important.
We could have a separate API version and program version, but that would really confuse users.
I really think a separate plugin API makes some amount of sense in that we probably wouldn't rev it every version. If we had only revision plugin authors would have to change their plugin to recognize the new release. I'm not sure that we can't make that understandable for users, at least as understandable and an enumerated list of versions.
