Yes, that would be possible.

Another approach that springs to my mind is not to expose the deltas in
the RA interface, so we would move my previous typedef to svn_repos
(renaming it) and in svn_ra.h add
typedef svn_error_t *(*svn_ra_file_rev_handler_t)
    (void *baton,
     const char *path,
     svn_revnum_t revnum,
     apr_hash_t *rev_props,
     svn_stream_t **contents,
     apr_hash_t *props,
     apr_pool_t *pool);

Then it could be implemented using the repository function for network RA
implementations, but for ra_local, we don't need to calculate the deltas.
I don't know if this is faster, but in any case, the client only cares
about the whole file, so why give it a delta?
