FWIW this matters when you use apache karaf features and then use the LATEST version to get the latest version. This means that 2.0.7-SNAPSHOT is LATER than 2.0.6 but 2.x-SNAPSHOT may or may not be LATER (I'm not sure without trying). (Also, there is a question of what to do about the Osgi-Version in MANIFEST.MF for SNAPSHOT versions...? What will maven-bundle-plugin do...? (again not possible to know without trying))
