Mobilemap (at mobilemap.petschge.de) already sends suitably stiched static images to the clients. The obvious problem with this approach is that it scales a lot worse than just shipping prerendered tiles and shift the burden of stitching and croping to the client. But for the small number of mobile users on my site it works quite well.
