Could We Create Binary Diffs for OpenStreetMap Planet Files?

Due to the recent spike in OpenStreetMap planet dump traffic, some people have wondered why so many users are redownloading the whole planet every week. The unfortunate truth is that applying replication diffs takes a long time1 and is not 100% reliable.2 I was wondering whether creating, distributing and applying binary deltas could help here. The OSM PBF format consists of a sequence of blocks with data inside. Usually per block there is one kind of objects: nodes, ways or relations.
