The TER can help ;) It is more a matter of what we want, instead of what is 
possible.
We could loosen the version constrain from TER, allowing to upload 
extensions with a dependency for the current master branch (7.99).
The problem is, that no extension can actually fulfill this promise, because 
no extension author can know in advance what will happen to the master 
branch and if the extension will need adoption.

We would also need to make the EM use the latest available version for each 
branch, if we want to allow different versions for each branch.

Best regards
