Actually I use that same naming convention everywhere else except in egit. I've found it easier to have the "major project name" prefixed in front of the version number as it sort of reminds me of what I'm looking at... yes, I get confused easily. There are far too many "v1.0.0", "v1.0.1" around... ;-)
