Strong formal effectiveness => openness versality

Actually not hard to prove and you only need to check on first order
thickenings.

Bhargav's example from c31011d shows that strong formal effectiveness
does not always hold. But what about strong formal effectiveness
where the thickenings are always first order (between any two, not
just between consecutive indices)? This is the only thing needed for
the argument here, so it would be nice if it was true for algebraic
stacks in general.

Getting smooth morphisms towards X

	Openness of versality gives this to us. But you have to worry a
	bit about (purely inseparable) residue field extensions, i.e.,
	you have to show that the versality condition is preserved under
	a bunch of reasonable operations.

	Somehow Artin never seems to run into this problem. I think
	because he consistently works with covers having a fixed residue
	field. So yes, it is possible to avoid this...
