Roger. Since I don't deal with pre-release versions much I guess my brain 
automatically skipped over the timestamp and other number, as it's used to the 
(3.15.0) part being unique on its own. (Which it obviously can't be while in 
development)

Don't mind me folks, nothing to see here, nothing to see here...

Yes.  That's called "dogfooding"
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eating_your_own_dog_food) and we do it
extensively.  Both the SQLite and the Fossil projects routinely use
unreleased trunk versions of the software for internal
mission-critical processes.

I'm typing this reply inside a Firefox nightly that is recompiled with
the latest trunk version of SQLite (or nearly the latest - I think I
rebuilt it yesterday).
