Presumably as new kernels come out the base number will change to
reflect the currently supported versions of Fedora. So that for the
3.9 kernel, f18  will probably be 1xx and f19 2xx.


That's a pretty arcane scheme. Would it work to use 17xx, 18xx and 19xx instead?

Probably. Putting the release after the dist tag would also probably work.
