For those of us using Debian-based distros there is debdelta. It unfortunately isn't well integrated with apt or the main archive and mirrors.

That was going to be my question. Something like a config file change in Wesnoth caused me to have to download well over 100MB the other day. (I've been using the latest Jaunty betas.) Does Canonical really have that much cheap bandwidth to spare that it's not worth them fixing this? What about their customers?

I think the question there is why the source package hasn't been split so
that the version change in the source package due to engine bugfixes doesn't trigger reupdates of the -music and all the campaign packages. (The music hardly ever changes, but takes most of the download time whenever an engine bugfix is applied).
