Probably because the source specification is interpreted as a regex. As
well as the period ‘.’ characters, special characters like ‘+’ need to
be quoted.

Also, in order to reduce the surprises, I prefer not to allow a
zero-length version string with ‘.+’. Instead it's better to have the
version part of the string specified as ‘.+’ so it's at least one
character long.
