If you haven't tried it, you might want to look at the sphinx-autobuild extension. It seems to work pretty well, it will start up its own webserver and issue an html rebuild anytime a file is modified.
I have noticed though if you use the sphinx-jinja extension, changing the source of the context will trigger a rebuild, but won't necessarily rebuild the affected content. You can make one small tweak to the plugin, change 'html' in the setup function to say 'env', then it works as expected. If you don't have too many people, you may be able to use that as a wiki.
