that do this kind of verification on the compressed data, not just delta-RPM,

So maybe, could we attach a second signature computed on the uncompressed 
payload ?
Delta-RPM could then use that to verify the reconstructed package & would be 
crazy fast,
as the slow XZ compression will no longer be needed to be performed client-side 
to verify
the signature.

It's not deltarpm that needs the signature. It just puts the package together. It's rpm that checks the signature.
