Reason was probably when we supported very low memory device of 16/32
where it was a miracle the thing booted and could handle some traffic.
uhttpd + luci was enough to make them run OOM.

I didn't check how LOW SPACE device are handled and maybe this is
already done, but maybe those device should not have the web ui
preinstalled?

I think another reason was to discourage people on using SNAPSHOT
instead of STABLE release (since no luci and they had to use SSH from
the start)

Aside from the LOW SPACE thing to check, totally OK for me to add webui
in SNAPSHOT image.
