Not in the least if rezzing were not required for designing. Designing without rezzing also has other advantages such as fewer and less frequent updates between the client and server while building, no rubber-banding, and the ability to design without using up prims, or even needing to have enough prims to ever rez what you're designing, in your work area.

You could argue that it's nice to be able to see people working on builds, but there's no reason you couldn't have the ability to edit an already rezzed object, and just save it now and then, or even impliment an autosave every few minutes or so, to update it in world. Or even give people the option to view another persons design if the designer allows it.
