Probably doable IFF one wants to, or can, run on SVN/GIT releases

I would (and already do) go with this option. It would also download the
least about.
I'm pretty sure with 15 minutes to spare, somebody could write a Lazarus
add-on (package) that registers a new "Get Updates" menu item in say the
Help menu, which triggers a 'git stash; git pull; git stash pop' and
then finally triggers the IDE to rebuild.
This is not so difficult.
IMHO the problem is primarily: what happens if it goes wrong.
i.e. the compile fails somewhere halfway the LCL.
The IDE will continue to function, but you won't be able to compile any apps.
Also, doing this requires a checkout. This will increase diskspace etc.
Lots of pitfalls.
Michael.
