For me, it's an advantage, because the urls returned by searches are
exactly as they are on the web, and no "beta" pages are returned.

This only DN can answer. But it seems that there can only be a
difference during reindexing. How often do you crawl your site?

For my site, I created a document inventory, with a link to all public
documents. That is linked from the help page, which is linked from the
http_start_url page. Thus, all pages that I want indexed are found by
the crawler. And a manifest/inventory of some sort is good for visitors,
too.  :-)
