hmm.  but it does seem to bear up my idea.  :)

it should probably be actually be 1.4.19.0, but i'm not sure it'll be
a popular idea.  :)

but instead we'd be using up more.  letters are a much more compact
form of representation.

btw - what would be wrong with simply going from 1.4Z -> 1.4a?  it
satisfies the ascii sort order, and would fit into the "kernel version
letter - '@'" methodology.
