What this model does is to make many more small releases (no more RC129),

I don't see how that's different than a/b/rc numbering. You can still
cut as many releases as you like.
1.1.0
1.2.0b1
1.2.0b2
1.2.0rc1
1.1.1
1.2.0rc2
1.2.0rc3
1.2.0
I can handle that too: version::AlphaBeta ;-)

But the argument that numeric only works much better for packagers is
very powerful, IMNSHO...
