Yes, but a hg interface is useless without having a webinterface. You
don't want to download a multi-gigabyte repository just to do a quick
query...

Or course the core developers all will have a repository, but that
doesn't help the QA-Person who'd like to know what changes were done
in a cws that might have broken the feature she's testing right now..
Or a buildbot admin who wonders why a cws broke
Or a developer who just wants some pretty-printing instead of plain
monochrome console
You get the idea :-)
