I've been wondering about that too.

Perhaps I'm spoiled by the procedures in NetBSD and FreeBSD for building and 
installing from source code, but I'd like to be able to build ReactOS from 
source with ROSBE from FreeBSD, NetBSD or Linux, or even from Wine, and install 
directly to USB stick or old IDE hard drive in a Sabrent enclosure connecting 
by USB 2.0 (making it effectively a USB hard drive).

That would save burning CDs which would become obsolete with every new build 
from updated source, and might not even boot, as was the case with downloaded 
0.3.15 installation ISO.

It would also be good, with "make installworld" or "make install", to be able 
to control the installation target and not mess up the wrong disk.
