My original proposal did not allow dependency like [1.8, 3). Only [1.8, 2). I 
was trying to incorporate the wider range into the proof somehow and at the 
end I think: maybe a modified version of range dependencies is not that bad 
(combine with best practices based on semantic versioning).

If anyone wants to check (and correct) my thoughts, here is a link to my write
