Yes, I believe that is what we want, and will insert some wording of this kind in the versioning protocol (unless anyone objects). I agree with Judy that this is better placed in the versioning protocol document, since resourceid's are likely to matter and be understood by anyone reading the versioning document (we have various id's), while the notion of a revision and a versioned resource is much less likely to be matter or be understood by someone reading the bindings document.
