I like DPB's idea of gentle milestones.

If the milestone idea gains traction, what's the next step? Submit the idea directly to the developers, or create some sort of vote page at the website and wait 2 weeks?
I hear you :-) As this would limit wikipedia editing in no way, I don't think we need to wait for a big vote. But, *what* to develop? How to define a milestone? Something like
* At least three logged-in users agree on a version to be a milestone * No logged-in user disagrees with that within a week of the first "yes"-vote
This could be based on my voting system, which can already tag both current and old versions. Or we should wait for Brion's database restructuring, so we can tag *real* article versions (instead of timestamps, as my hack does).
This might actually replace the "stable version" idea in the long run...
