This is usually done (by hand) every time a new major stable version is 
released.
One argument against your proposal is that if you run
convert-ly -e *.ly
then you can look at the modification time of each file to see if it was 
changed
or not, whereas if we implement your proposal then all files will be 
updated
even though nothing except for the \version line has changed.
