Yeah, I think I'd be happy with this.

Also, part of the problems comes from the total-unsorted-ness of version
items in the query page.  For instance,

* 3.5.1 release is followed by 3.4.6 RC1

* 4.2.00alpha0+Master comes between 4.1.0.0alpha1 and 4.1.0.0beta1 (the
reason why I missed it)

* "3.3 all versions" comes after "3.6.7.1 rc"

* "4.3.0.0alpha0+Master" comes between "4.2.0.0beta1" and "4.2.0.0beta2"

and so on.

Anyway, it appears that one can use a regular expression to filter
versions, which I was previously looking for but didn't realize it was
under the "Custom Search" section.  I can just use that to make it fit
my workflow.

Thanks,

Kohei
