I'm wondering how to respond to security patches. After a patch, any go.mod 
file mentioning an older version of the library is a candidate for 
version-bumping: download the new version, test, and do a commit with the 
new version number if all goes well.

It's nice that it can be done in any order, but if it isn't done (either 
manually or automatically) nobody will use the new version except new 
customers of the patched library.

I suppose a minimal approach would be to encourage people to run "vgo get 
-u" periodically, test, and commit.
