My feeling is that this would make it more difficult for people to get up
to speed when they want to tinker with -current.  Imagine what would have
happened to the unfortunate soul who happened to download a snapshot for a
68K-based system while we had the recent problems with libc... it was
nearly impossible to fix without having another machine to mount a working
copy from (NFS, disk, what have you).

I like regular snapshots, but this seems like it might be a way to shoot
ourselves in the foot.
