How do I license a work with CC license version X “or later”?

Question

When licensing software under the GPL, you can (optionally) add an "or later" clause to the license version. So "GPLv2 or later" can be incorporated into a GPLv3 work, for example.

Is there a recommended way to do this for CC licenses? For example, how do I release a work as "CC BY-SA 2.5 or later"?

(I know that certain recombinations of works under different versions of CC licenses are allowed. I am instead looking for a way to explicitly allow wholesale recombination/relicensing as described above.)

CC BY-SA 4.0 states that "The Adapter’s License You apply must be a Creative Commons license with the same License Elements, this version or later, or a BY-SA Compatible License." Similar clauses can be found since CC 2.0.
