maybe there should be a button for downloading the latest release and the latest snapshot side by side and certainly i see your point but users downloading the latest snapshot still will not have the latest when they report a bug. So iam not sure this would actually help. Many if not most people still would have to go and re-download also if release and snapshot differ much its probably time for a new major release ... not saying that makes your argument less relevant but more saying that i think we should probably make a new major release ...
