The existing delta encoding is based on fixed length records and won't
work at all. On the other hand, a delta could be encoded with a edsSkip
code (or a edsSkip, <count> sequence) for each unchanged item and the
encodings for only items that changed.
Whether or not a non-blob compressed item would be carried uncompressed
through the engine to the client is a question we don't have to answer
other than to say, "it could but doesn't have to".
