It seems a reasonable policy change to require the uploading of complete 
tilesets. The bottleneck is always going to be the server, so why not push as 
much work to the clients as possible and make it as easier for the server.

If we mandate the uploading of full tilesets as tar files and it get's as easy 
for the server to process that as to move it to the appropriate location, then 
I'm all for it. I'm just not going to code it.

Marking blank tiles could still be done by passing the appropriate blankness 
info through a special HTTP call.
