Right, if you are a developer, it's fine (and even better). But, my concern is that the whole linux kernel tree might be too heavy for some casual user who just wants to try the latest version of ALSA driver... "Download 50MB and use 350MB disk space just for a single fix? Hell, no!"
I don't think there are many people who really care about this. I personally don't know any. In fact, ALSA is the only kernel subsystem I know that works the way it does now.
