Actually, there is:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
PRAGMA schema.user_version;
PRAGMA schema.user_version = integer ;

The user_version pragma will to get or set the value of the user-version
integer at offset 60 in the database header. The user-version is an
integer that is available to applications to use however they
want. SQLite makes no use of the user-version itself.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Better use them than creating an ad-hoc table I guess, WDYT?
