This will make it easier to know what version people are using, and becomes more important as other people may be using/testing S.

Use the Status service to get the installed version:

$version = $serviceLocator->get('Omeka\Status')->getInstalledVersion();

Omeka\Module::VERSION is also a way to go that doesn't require access to the service locator.

There is a distinction between installed version and code version, but I suppose that distinction is hidden from users during updates.

FYI we should have this done by, lets say, Monday, so that it will be there in the version we package on Tuesday.
