FWIW the datastore itself can "migrate" from older to newer versions, 
i.e. read the contents of an old-format datastore and write a new-format 
one. You could do something similar in Physics so you would at least be 
backwards compatible.
I think I've seen this in some activity as well, but can't remember 
which one.
