It would add delay to the planet creation process.  I don't know how 
much of an issue that would be.

How many people still download the full planet on a regular basis?  I 
would hope that people would begin to use changesets even if they only 
require a complete xml file.  For bandwidth reasons alone the gains are 
well worthwhile, plus you can get far more regular updates than weekly.
