How could I develop the new versions if I didn't use a local repository?  If I just edit the portfiles in the main repository then my changes would get blown away by "port selfupdate" wouldn't they?

True, if your main port repository is synchronized by the default rsync method. I change that to use Subversion, so my changes are preserved.
