New releases usually really are binary incompatible, so this is very much intentional.

For patch releases (e.g. 0.46.0.0 -> 0.46.0.1) there is binary compatibility and it would be possible to generate a policy assembly to automatically redirect (or you can use an app.config to "manually" redirect).
