Well, yes, it would be a lot of work. And I'm quite certain the
official javascript packaging team would disagree to split jquery-goodies.

But, I think switching to upstream numbering is still possible. by
using an epoch number. The new version number for libjs-jquery-cookie
would be 1:1.4.0 (epoch 1) which would be more recent than 8-2 (epoch
0). Generating a binary package with a different version number than
the source package is definitely possible.
