Description
By name, it is unexpected that STATIC_ROOT_LMS would be required for cms static asset build. Potentially this is about correcting that. Possibly this is about updating docs to make this more clear.
- This should be confirmed.
- Potentially https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/blob/master/docs/references/static-assets.rst should be updated and/or code comments?
