Sure. But only because XeTeX provides a simple, immuable and unambiguous way of
identification. My whole point is that every engine should provide such a
mechanism, and the more coherent choice IMO is a \<engine-name>version primitive.
It costs essentially nothing, and avoids a lot of possible problems, now and in
the future.
