You sure? Wouldn't it be simple enough to add @version="1.1" in, something 
like 

<module name="..." version="1.1">

If you see that 1.1 version string you treat it differently. Or maybe if you 
don't see it then you pass it through a transformer of some kind.

The only problem that would occur is when you start requiring new data which 
does not have any way to guess reasonable defaults.
