As someone else mentioned, there is also the version numbers from the moz central tree - for instance FF4 was 2.0: http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-2.0/tags

But i would also rather we ship with what we have now than get bogged down in deciding something else if there isn't a clear consensus.

Personally the 'JS version' has always seemed fairly arbitrary, and also I don't imagine there will change very fast - so using FF or moz versions would be far superior.
