I just don't see myself using setup.ml during developement, I use a light ("funny" to quote Gabriel Scherer) shell script that has a few targets and falls back to ocamlbuild if nothing matches.  

That way if I quickly want to compile something (e.g. type checking a module) I can just ./build module.cmo. Want to test something, just create test.ml and invoke ./build test.native. If I had to use setup.ml I would first have to write a lot of things into that _oasis file only to remove them later.

But setup.ml seems perfectly fine to me as a standard build script for distribution, keep the focus on that.  
  
Best,

Daniel
