Not intending to troll here, but why exactly do you need readable version numbers for a DVCS? Are you going to speak them over the phone?Sequential version numbers are the easy way to binary search which commit broke some particular feature. I guess some date tag would also work, but splitting in the middle of the search space is just easier with sequential numbers.
git bisect does the same in a more powerful way. Using a SHA or revision number is not different in that process.
