With regards to minimum version selection, if I depend on some feature present, this comes with two implicit dependencies: correctness and safety. My knee-jerk reaction here is that the time folks spend "telling the package manager, 'no, use at least Y,'" will largely be in response to these sorts of issues. Maybe this is seen as "working as intended;" my feeling is that this will become tiresome for projects with large dependency chains. Might it be worthwhile (and automatically possible) to pick the "maximally correct" minimum version?
