Would still never work since if they can't upload it the major addon sites then they'll just upload it to a site where they can eg GoogleCode , github, sourceforge or even just their own site.

They only way you'll properly enforce it would be for Blizzard to enforce it when getting to the Character screen. IE Addons not using the major.minor.revision version format don't get loaded in that screen

And frankly I don't ever see them do that.
