I figured in the cases where semver is not followed, the text is left
unaffected, and a lot of packages do follow some kind of dot-separated
versioning (Here's how the patch looked when I ran the other day:

But thinking about it, it *would* be much simpler to just compare letter by
letter and color everything beyond the first differing letter in. I'll try
it out some time this week.
