Code names aside, this would still mean that we'd have a progression from 
Plasma 4.11 (nobody outside KDE calls it "Plasma 1") to Plasma 2, which at 
least I would not be able to properly explain to anyone.
Changing the numbering scheme would clearly indicate that the next plasma 
version is not just the next iteration after 4.11, but something different 
altogether.
