I know that it is illegal for human players to use any sort of mechanical device that would give them an advantage; this would include a stepstool of any sort. But as far as I know, the rules say nothing about coaches using stepstools. If you really are worried about this, go ahead and put it in the FIRST QnA.
I think this is a non-issue, though--we have a short coach (sorry Mark  ) and he'll just move to a side or stand between the drivers during the match.

Come on guys, give me some credit... 5'6". This will be my 5th year coaching and before that I drove for 3 years. I never have had an issue with either due to height. Although in 2003 the team did create a pair of shoes that were an extra 12 inches tall for me; after rolling my ankle a time or two the shoes came up missing.
