Hmm. I'd say any series should have an increment in it to differentiate, 
with the exception being RESEND.

Also you are splitting one patch into four.

Looking through a bunch of email it might be not immediately obvious to 
understand that the new series and old series differ, which is IMO how 
the version numbers help others to know what's going on.
