Actually, that attribution is plain wrong.

If we say 4.9 was the first because 4.9 < 5.1, then it is wrong because 
5.0 doesn't have it.

If we say 4.9 was the first because 4.9 was released before 5.1, well, 
it isn't.

The only way to do it is use the actual order of release, however much 
trouble that might cause to people running 4.9 that get surprised that a 
feature was first present in 5.1. :-)
