(Get the code!)
Accepting floats here seems dangerous. For example, '4.1' and '4.10' would probably designate different versions. But as (float) numbers they would be indistinguishable. Therefore I think that signalling an error is the most prudent way to handle non-integer numbers in places where version numbers are expected.
