I’ll note that we put a v=1 tag/value pair in DKIM signatures, so at least at the time we had imagined that we might do something that isn’t exactly DKIMv1 and still want to call it DKIM.
Version numbers, inside a protocol, are a common feature. I believe they never prove useful.
If the protocol is upward compatible, the new features speak for themselves, and the version number is irrelevant.
If the protocol is not upward compatible, the version number is insufficient.
