Hm.  I think when the numbering scheme went into place, inheritance
between rawhide and Branched still existed.  Now that it doesn't, we
need to either do what you ask about, or always make sure the actual
Version of rawhide is newer (so a newer git snapshot, rc, whatever).

Even with inheritence, since there have been f20 kernel builds it wouldn't apply.

I think having the same style numbering for all of the kernels has some visual appeal. It feels odd (to me) looking at both rawhide kernel versions and released kernel versions currently. So if it isn't extra work, I have a preference for consistant naming.

The other option would be not to use Yxx numbering for development kernels and make sure that rawhide and branched get builds at the same time. The next git bump will be enough to make the use of 301 for f19 once irrelevant.
