There is no reason why we cannot also provide cutting-edge versions.
We do this already for some packages.  For example, see any of the
following packages:

  guix package --search=. | recsel -e 'name ~ "-(git|next|dev|devel|cvs|svn)$"'

Generally, it seems the trend is that we provide such development
versions as separate packages.
