Hmm, what about file.txt -> ._file.txt.1, ._file.txt.2, etc? If you
don't like the _ you could use @ or some other character.
You missed Nicolas's point.
It does not matter which delimiter you use. I still want my "for i in
*; do ..." to work as per now.
We want to differentiate files that are created intentionally from
those that are just versions. If files starts showing up on their
own, a lot of my scripts will break. Still, an FV-aware
shell/program/API can accept an environment setting that may quiesce
the version output. E.g. "export show-version=off/on".
