Right, this is my perspective as well. The point that the wheel format already 
includes a build ordering field was significant because that file naming scheme 
has an official specification.

Other commands like bdist_egg, bdist_dumb and bdist_wininst aren't as strict 
about the expected file names, although it would be good to define a suggested 
optional build numbering convention at least for bdist_egg, such that 
easy_install will do the right thing, even if the full source level version 
number isn't bumped.

This is just as relevant for sdists as well. It is quite common to see a broken 
release due to a missing or wrong MANIFEST.in.


Test them prior to uploading them.
