apt module capabilities

Reading the apt module source I notice it can do

apt pkg=foo state=latest

But cannot do:

apt pkg=foo state=version-number

Can this be upgraded to achieve parity with the yum module, or is it something that is not possible and/or does not make
sense?

That would be great if they could both do that, because often when deploying software to production you have
multiple versions available and want a very specific version.
