I've been wrestling this issue for over 2 weeks and finally found a simple solution in Share.

Create a Folder Rule with the following:

Remove Versionable Aspect
Add Versionable Aspect
Change cm:versionLabel to 0.1
Check Out (no destination folder required)
Check In (as minor version)

This creates a locked document with a *hidden* version label. Manually upload a new version (same document is fine) and set it to a minor version. Document is then available with 0.1 as version label and with 0.1 as the last Version in the version history.

I implemented this on a folder as a Space Template, so that non-technical users don't need to do anything except create a new folder from the template. The document is then locked for editing by them and ready for the first 0.1 version to go in.
