Consider that the updated layout (in 2.0.5) contains _new_ commands
and that the user creates a document using those new commands that the
2.0.5 layout supports. What happens if a collaborator opens this
document in 2.0.3? Will it work, or will opening/compilation break
down? In other words, is the versioning scheme necessary in such a
case?

We also have the right to consider the new commands and the necessity to support them right _now_. It may be that they are really required, but I bet that in many cases they will only correspond to corner cases.

I do not think that any Windows user will demand that we switch LyX to use only the metro UI because it is the new norm...
