Details

We need to go through the database and make sure all version numbers are of the form major.minor.release.build[+]
You can't arbitrarily go through the DB and change versions, even if it's somehow more "correct" to do so. Extensions/Themes that already exist would not be updateable, because they wouldn't be able to find their versioning, plus, you're highly likely to piss off authors and create a disconnect between the DB data and the install.rdf in the repository.
Point taken. They shouldn't be in the DB if they don't adhere to the standard.

We'll get this as part of the migration to Remora, because we won't be importing arbitrary version strings, so we don't need to go through and deal with the current badness. (We already get a disconnect between install.rdf and the DB intentionally, as part of the compat-check mechanisms.)
