Is it important for the clients that this value is tied to creation
time? I am trying to come up with a word like "serial" that makes
it clear that the values have no meaning other than that they are
always growing in one direction to suggest as a replacement, but
failing to find a good one. The word should probably not have
any connotation that they must be consecutive, but "serial" numbers
are usually dense.

Left ;-).
Two-level variable names and three-level variable names live
completely in a separate namespace (there is no D/F conflict).
[bundle]
version = 1
[bundle "version"]
url = ...
mode = ...
is perfectly legit.
