We wanted to not auto-increment, but at least make the incrementation
itself much simpler, and also follow a similar naming format as you propose.

So, we installed our BumpVersionAction into the IDE, which allows
right-clicking on (module) projects and increasing their specification
version - all the action does is to replace the Specification Version
line with a new one following a yyyy.MM.dd.HH.mm format. (Actually, with
a transformed year, making 2017 version 7, 2018 version 8 and so on.
