I'm afraid you underestimate the number of people who actually compile LilyPond themselves and have to struggle with development versions of other tools just to be able to build LilyPond.
Possibly. We try our best to discourage people to do so. I see no reason whatsoever for a user to compile LilyPond. There are fairly recent development snapshots for Red Hat, Debian and even Cygwin nowadays.
But, at the same time, you want to encourage people to submit documentation patches (and other patches) and it's certainly a big advantage if it's easy for them to build the documentation after a change to see what it looks like before they submit the patches.
