I need to mull this over a bit more, but I think this could be acceptable...

1) Gem yank allows you to quickly 'undo' a release. Since this wasn't
possible before, you usually had to repush or ask us to remove it manually.
2) You're not going to run out of version numbers, and pushing is
ridiculously fast.
3) We could take a SHA of the incoming .gem, and make sure on a new gem push
that SHA hasn't been pushed, thereby enforcing atomic versions.
4) On a 'repush' we could display a message saying why and telling the user
to bump the patch version, and the command to yank that version if need be.

>> Yes it is. It would be much safer if it just flipped the bit.
