I've not given this much more thought, but I think we should change the
setup.ini syntax to allow different values for _all_ keys in a package
for each version.  The ones that are not in a specific section
(i.e. where they are now, right after the package line) would just
provide a default that gets used when there is no version-specific value
provided in the corresponding section.  Calm could/should move such
key/value pairs to the default when they are identical among the
majority of versions, otherwise use those from the current version.

Achim.
