We also need to tackle individual module versioning. Each and every time a drupal.org module distribution package gets updated with any change whatsoever, a new version needs to be created.
Dear god no. Developers need to be able to control the version numbers and stack releases. That's why there are dev (called 'nightly' in so many projects) builds and when devs are happy with it, they pull a release. I've never heard of a decent system that just forces automatic releases on you. After how, how do release notes get written? How do you standardize an API? Does Drupal Core work that way? Absolutely not, and if it did, everyone would hate it. Ew. Contrib isn't second class.
