That's what the "dp" and "rc" designations are for, but it would probably be more clear if there was a statement on the page explaining what those mean, along with appropriate caveats. Final releases should be clearly marked as stable.
We're discussing the difference between releases which have been announced and versions which have been uploaded to the release directory before they have actually been given all final checks, not the difference between dp, rc and gm versions.
The process which sometimes results in improperly functioning builds or installers being publicly available prior to their actual finalization and announcement has been discussed in the past and explained by the devs, who have suggested that the system was being looked at with an eye to fixing this.
But, I agree that a note on the download page, along the lines you suggest, would be a good idea :)
