Ishizu-san of Kadokawa pointed out this issue. We will continue to check epubcheck 4.2 for Japanese EPUB publiications.

Ishizu-san has an interesting suggestion. He proposes that every added error/warning should be accompanied by the version number of the underlying EPUB specification.

Publishers often have to validate old publications using new epubcheck. This is for example because new ebook stores require that every publication passes epubcheck. Usually, such validation of past publications will lead to errors/warnings that were not issued before. If every error/warning indicates the version number of the underlying EPUB specification, it will become easier to handle such newly issued errors/warnings.

The EPUB 3 CG decided in w3c/publ-cg#68 to not differentiate specification versions when checking EPUB 3.x publications. This question was asked specifically to avoid having to maintain a check-to-spec-version mapping (which would unfortunately not be as straightforward as it may seem) 😊
