I think it supports my position on this. Also the "Which Directory for What" section.

I missed the reference to "release candidates". I agree they need to be considered a release :(.
The problem is that this just pushes you to skip the 'rc'. I was hoping to quickly get an RC out for people to test with while the processes rolls along for the real release.
Couldn't you just do a tag like pre-release_candidate or something, so that people can have a reference for testing? It wouldn't be added to the www.apache.org/dist/ list, and would be similar to a snapshot, however, it would fill the purpose of having everyone test the same release^H^H^H^H^H^H tagged snapshot.
