I think this is not a good idea. Developers MUST take care of the system's internals. It should not be problem for a responsible developer (hey, it is just a devel package). On windows systems, developers tends to ignore fundamental principles. Unix, Linux, etc. requires some background. That is why unix-like systems are more reliable than windows systems: unix's developers know unix, windows developers don't know windows.
