Description:
From time to time the XML format of the dump files has changed. For instance <redirect> was not in the original format and I think also <restrictions> was not there.

If the header of the dump files had provided a version I could've handled redirect tags efficiently with a fallback to parsing the text field for older versions.

Since the dump file format is sure to change again in the future a version field would make much sense.
