At the moment I'd be inclined to release the new utility with version number aligned with the rest of the packages (i.e. start from 1.6.0 instead of 0.0.1), but with alpha/beta/rc suffixes, i.e. 1.6.0-beta.1, 1.6.0-beta.2, etc.

I'm not sure that lerna supports applying a prerelease suffix to only one of the packages of the monorepo, so we might have to somehow handle this manually in our CI/CD.
