You do correctly point out that it's in "early development" phase. Sure, there are bound to be stability issues; this was also true in early alphas of Firefox, back when it was called Phoenix. Yep, the developers are going to have stuff in there for their easy diagnostics; I would too, in any alpha-code that I wrote. And of course there's no way that it can compare to Adobe's Acrobat 8 just yet (again, it's alpha code).
That said, I'm glad you pointed out this program to us. In time, it looks like it will be very good for most users' PDF-editing needs--small tweaks. I have no need for the proprietary Adobe Acrobat Reader, as XPDF and KPDF are quite sufficient for my needs (reading/printing PDF files). OpenOffice.org has been able to create PDF files for nearly four years now, so I don't need Adobe Acrobat Distiller. We're getting there....

Of course there are issues--it's early alpha!
