Yes, this is badly needed, IMO.  I've had complaints that I changed
libwnck .so versions too much.  But I couldn't figure it out from the
comments in various configure.(ac|in) files either.

Going one step further...it'd also be really nice to have some
automated tool to verify whether I made the right changes.  (Perhaps
that could be run as part of make distcheck?)
