It was made to cover the most common versioning schemes used in the Fedora
package collection without passing an option. 

How does it know whether Y in X.Y is not a cvs/svn/post-release/date
identifier or number that it must not touch?

  Such as:
  1.0-1.a%{?dist}  for  version 1.0a (post-1.0 update)
  1.0-1.20080901%{?dist}  for a scm checkout


Side-note: 1.1%{?dist} to begin with may be fine, but only if you
use exactly the same versioning scheme for all %dists. Else you
break the upgrade path too easily, e.g. if an older dist bumps
1%{?dist} to 1.1%{?dist}, which then compares .1 to %{?dist},
and 1 is greater than all fedora dist tags.
