I was expecting snow to pile when the snow came but no piling the only way to pile snow was with snow from inventory.

Considering that Mojang's official snapshot comments says "fully implemented multiple snow heights." (emphasis mine), I certainly would expect also snowfall to gradually increase the stack height (within limits since there is probably no melting at bottom!)
Otherwise, what is there "fully implemented" about 😛
Marge, careful when calling someone idiot. Consider this: the snowfall "stacks" in real world yet it doesn't pile up to the clouds (well, at high area it can, but that is beside the point). The thing is, people expect the behavior requested here (without thinking that there should also be some limiting factor(s) as it is "taken for granted"). Limiting the accumulation can be done trivially (or more naturally and less trivially, if so desired).
And as the Dinnerbone's tweet tells, they already had this implemented. The particular implementation just caused too much load (i.e. lag).
Nobody said it should
