This is indeed a problem that I, too want to see fixed. The current setup with MC is far from perfect.
provide xdelta[1] or bsdiff[2] files then? some stats: 7000: zip 13495279 bytes, image 20750832 bytes, changes 22681123 bytes 7001: zip 13481005 bytes, image 20679256 bytes, changes 22723916 bytes 7002: zip 13511250 bytes, image 20707776 bytes, changes 22798872 bytes
bsdiff files 7000-7001: image 299297 bytes, changes 5534 bytes total: 234831 bytes 7001-7002: image 981158 bytes, changes 11060 bytes total: 992268 bytes
they only work against the originally downloaded file, but that could be at least a usable workaround until there's some way to do a proper image update via MC.
