You should even do this if the code you are hacking is

something to coordinate development work. If you always wait putting stuff
into public visibility until you consider it having reached a certain level of
completeness, you might impress some people that want to use the tool but you
are unlikely to attract external developers.
The public build service svn doesn't have a "shadow" svn internally
where things are developed and later moved out. Whatever is in the
public svn now is being developed there.
It is true that not everything made it to the public svn yet for several
reasons. This is an unfortunate, but as we all hope temporary situation.
This only affects the backend part. API frontend and clients are in the
public svn, and developments happens there.
