Yup - that wasn't so much a fix as a new feature (I don't think that
resource ever supported negative indexing), thus, a new version was
needed.

So if we used semver, then this would still be a MINOR version bump:

    MINOR version when you add functionality in a backwards-compatible
    manner

(from the semver website [1]). However, in my experience APIs don't
tend to use semantic version so I think we can ignore that.
