This implies that someone actually checks for all sysexts if there are 
changes in a version and increases the version if that is the case?

It makes sense for all sysexts. They were tested with that particular 
release and so the em_conf should reflect that they are suitable for one 
or more versions. Keeping the sysext version in sync with the TYPO3 
version makes it all a lot simpler. When preparing a new version (a 
"major" version) (after the release party of the previous version) all 
sysexts can be set to be compatible with 4.x.0-4.x.99 and the version 
can be synced with that new version.

Bugfixes, feature can go to the appropriate branches and will only be 
used with the TYPO3 version they are meant for.
