Certainly, we don't want people to check out the whole -dev root tree.

Well, we have that already.  Setting up tags/branches/trunk inside the
project sub-directory is also recommended practice.  And I don't think
it is a bad one.  That our project root is at the third level down
does not hurt there in my view.  I don't think it is necessary to set
up a separate repository to follow that scheme.

Now, the suggestion was to also integrate the stable client directory
into the -dev tree.  And it is not entirely clear to me how that is
supposed to look like.

Another possibility could be to move tilesAtHome into
tilesAtHome-dev/stable.

But, personally, I would just leave everything as it is.
