However there are many mods that just modify 1 file so being able to include the version info right in that file like now would be best for that situation.
I was just thinking the same thing..

Give us a page like Dolby suggested so we can just edit that one page something like;

<page Name="eq2ui_versions"
mainhud_target="2.0.0"
mainhud_mainchat="2.0.1"
>

And for the authers that just do windows have it where IF a ver propertie is populated it overrides the eq2ui_versions page.

Don't get me wrong, I love the idea of the versions but for authers like me where every peice of the UI is modded its going to be a real burdon on us to keep up with each window version if we have to do it on a page by page base.
