A possible mid-term solution, to your use case, is to set the output
format of the latest stable version.

This would mean that any document is always imported to the latest
development release and when saved it is done in the stable file
format.

On the other hand what this would mean to stress the
conversion/reversion round trip.

This could be implemented as some kind of option to set, by default,
the save file format version or even better, because in this case this
is what it intended, the target version.

In the preferences file this could go as:

\save_file_format 2.4

If this option is not set then everything works as usual.
If it is set then, when the file is saved, the file is reverted to that
file format.

I hope that this idea helps, :-)
