[Zope-dev] What use cases are driving "make install" from a checkout?

I'd like to step back and see if we can agree on what is driving the desire
for "make install".  I'll note that one reason is that it worked this way
before, but I don't think that that is a good enough reason to delay the
release.

I'll note one use case:

- A Zope deployer wants to deploy an unreleased version of Zope
   because they need some feature or bug fix that hasn't been
   released yet.

Can anyone think of other use cases?
