It is, actually, since WoWI are the ones who have a reason to care about whether people want to download addons. Personally I couldn't care less whether someone needs to go to the trouble of *oh god the horror* opening an archive and dragging icon into a folder, to install the updates that I release -- or whether they get downloaded at all, for that matter. WoWI are the ones that do because they're the ones who actually get paid for traffic to their site.
Not that I think there's any case for insisting on using arbitrary versioning schemes; but as a user, your choice is to either deal with the eccentric authors of such addons or not use those addons. There's no weight behind complaints that someone didn't release their addon exactly the way you want it to be.
