Ah, ok. Thank you for clarifying. In that case there is nothing to not look forward to, and hopefully the proposal will be fully adopted soon.
From then on, you will be "pinned" to that version unless you explicitly choose to upgrade it via an update to your mod.go or a `vgo get -u`
As to putting even MORE in the import paths, I think the idea fits in with Tim Berners-Lee, just that non-major versions are like "edits" to the URLs rather than fundamental changes to the the content of a page. IE, you don't rename the URL in your case when you make a spelling mistake, same as not "renaming" your imports when you are just bringing in a patch release.
