Yes, this is an idea I've been toying with myself. Have a development CD etc. The problem is that this needs some extra work to support it properly, I'll have to think of a technical solution so that it's easy to do this... On the other hand, I prefer to not have 10 CDs for each alpha out there, this would be something for the final product only.
