...the leak occurring at a fast drip suggests that you really need to have this fixed -- could get worse under pressure resulting in really really fast drip.
Depends on your budget whether it's worth doing or not, because removing the transmission is necessary. If you're at all unsure of your clutch you'd be well advised to attend to that while you're at it rather than go through the whole transmission removal process again later on.
Perhaps there are some oil additives you could try to stop the leak, or go up in oil viscosity.
