I mean the `numeric_version` object not a numeric (double/int). Basically to protect me from myself I'd prefer not to have to remember to wrap `getNamespaceVersion()` with `as.package_version()`. I suspect a grep of CRAN may highlight others who are erroneously comparing character objects rather than a comparison between a `numeric_version` object and a character.

Would R-Core be receptive to having getNamespaceVersion() return a numeric_version object instead of a named character? Tim
