I guess the issue there is that you then have to add the snapshot repo
explicitly just to *build* a sandbox component or generate its web
site. We want to force people to do that if they *depend* on sandbox
jars, but just building a sandbox component should not require it IMO.

And it doesn't require that to build either -- install the parent.
I suspect anyone who has used m2 even minimally is aware of the
bootstrapping problems with development builds and how to solve them.
For everyone else (and I'm sure we will get questions), the sandbox
components should have 'install parent pom' as step 0 of their
'building' pages.
