As far as I understand, the proposal would be to have some sort of
button in Frescobaldi itself to install new versions of LilyPond, not
only during installation of Frescobaldi. I think that would exactly fit
your use case, which is "get me the latest development version of
LilyPond that was released an hour ago". Same for stable releases,
obviously 😉
