 FWIW, as a developer I quite like the current behaviour. It allows me to
 have different Activity bundle versions in Journal, install and test with
 the specific version I want. Choice a) would be a bad IMO as when I
 upgrade an Activity to the latest shiny version I want to access all those
 lovely new Activity features if I open up existing work; choice a) also
 assumes you have a all previous versions of an Activity bundle available
 to install. Choice b) is OK, but prevents me from working with different
 versions (say I'm hacking on my own version of Write, but still want to be
 able to use the older official one.

 Actually, having been exposed to the git hash scheme of things, I've fast
 gone off version numbers :-) I'm not sure how I could use Sugar to safely
 hack on a new version of any Activity, and not risk get clobbered by an
 official release with that same sequential version number a little later.
