I go back and forth on this sort of thing. One compromise I've tried  
with other projects is to put the document source (TeX, lyx, SVG,  
texinfo, etc) under version control, but then arrange for the release  
process to render it into something readable (PDF, png, info) for  
inclusion in the release tarball. Folks who are working with a trunk  
checkout are used to doing more work anyways. I also upload rendered  
versions to a website upon each release.

A "make release" target with generates doc PDFs and then runs  
"setup.py sdist" (and a suitable MANIFEST) entry to include the  
generated files) would probably do the trick.

cheers,
