Objection.

The nginx project basically provides two versions of nginx: stable and mainline.
New releases of the stable version contains bug and security fixes.
The mainline usually introduces a bugs in a new features.  This is why it has been
marked with '-devel' suffix.

For stable version FreeBSD ports tree historycally uses the same name as a software 
product has been named by author, for development version with '-devel' prefix.

Also, I see no reason why user may cause to avoid using the www/nginx-devel port.
Think it's always up to user to use or not to use any port from FreeBSD ports tree
as well as FreeBSD operating system.
