[Bioperl-l] version() vs seq_version()

Looking at bug 3095:

http://bugzilla.open-bio.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3095

As indicated there seems to be some redundancy between Bio::Seq::version() and Bio::Seq::RichSeq::seq_version().  Several formats (asciitree, genbank, embl, bsml, etc) all call seq_version(), whereas others use version() if at all.  My guess is the SV line from EMBL, but shouldn't using version() handle this?

Just as an experiment, I actually got seq_version to delegate to version() and all tests passed, so maybe this should just delegate or alias?
