I would like to propose the following changes to the PVP. These are the same changes that I recently published on the Yesod blog[1]. For more information on the motivations behind these changes, please see that blog post.

I see no need to complicate the PVP with distinctions about stable and unstable, published and unpublished packages. My preferred solution is to declare lower and upper version bounds in Build-Depends according to current PVP and ignore these bounds on demand via options that are passed to cabal-install.
