Version info as part of the jmod filename?

I was wondering how fundamental including the version in the jmod 
filename is to the overall jigsaw approach?

I'm trying to reconcile writing the version in the module-info.java, and 
writing build rules that will need to include the version information in 
the jmod filename. I can set a make variable for the version string but 
then I have to keep it in sync with the contents of module-info.java.

If the version info was not part of the filename this would not be an issue.

Alternatively if the version info could be omitted from module-info.java 
but supplied as a compile-time option, that was also solve my problem.
