If you both implement 'latest' as a symlink and have this blurb, then the "latest" page will always have a rather silly looking link to itself. If the latest numbered version and latest could be generated separately, then I think this would work very well. The quick-n-dirty thing to do would be to switch to the 302 redirects, which given the dominance of google, may well be good enough.
