Duh!  Thanks, Emmanuel and Stephen.  I forgot about that "add milestone"
button.  Still learning.

I guess the reason there are different objects for milestone and version is
milestones could be much finer grained (v1.01_featureN, v1.01_featurecomplete,
v1.01_tested, etc.), and maybe not even the same as versions (v1.01).
Otherwise everything could just be a Milestone, and (as Stephen says) versions
would just be Milestones that are in the past.
