This would be a license violation if JQuery were under the GPL since it's obviously not the preferred form of modification. But it's licensed under much more liberal licenses and it's ok to ship only a minified file considering that it is its own source. Furthermore there are many tools that can reindent the javascript resulting in something much more readable. That said I agree that it's sub-optimal and given that upstream ship many .dev.js along the corresponding minified files, I'll keep the bug open to remember to bring it up with upstream.
