I think users who aren't competent at system administration tasks (i.e., the
Linux command line, editing configuration files, solving problems etc.),
shouldn't be installing and running unreleased versions of desktop
environments and assistive software. At the very least, they shouldn't be
doing so on any machine that is used for purposes other than software testing
- especially, don't do it on a desktop or laptop that you use for any other
work.

However, there's excellent documentation available for those who want to
acquire system administration skills and advance their Linux knowledge. The
people with the appropriate background will definitely be in a position to
help with testing, and those without the background have yet another reason to
learn and build up their skill level.

Arch Linux is undoubtedly a good starting point for people who have the skills
in place.
