It is perfectly reasonable to propose a new attribute
say 'Source_Version that returns a string with the kind
of attributes you suggest (e.g. it could return a version
number from the CM, or the time stamp, or some such).

But this has nothing whatsoever to do with the 'Version
attribute, and you merely confuse the discussion by
thinking otherwise.

Try reading the definition in the RM *forgetting* that
the name of the attribute is "version" :-)
