Isn't it overengineered a bit?
Why not just set a regexp that will be matched against the fully qualified
version name?

In order to add a notion of priority, you can either keep all the
REGEXP<->ID pairs in an ordered list and let the user change the ordering,
or you could use non-anchored matches and sort them by size (which will give
you the ordering between the first 4 and between the last 3 of your 7 cases)
and by starting-position (to distinguish the put the first 4 cases before
the last 7).
