I agree you shouldn't force this kind of behavior on your customers...
If you still think you must, then you'll want to use the Upgrade table in
version 2.0 to detect versions 1.1 or 1.2 and disallow upgrade in those
cases. The MajorUpgrade tag will not do this kind of thing for you so
you'll need to author Upgrade yourself.
