For optimizing network bandwidth that sounds like the way to go.  For
adhoc development I don't know.  For a central sever you still need
an authenticated way to push content, which makes it another dimension
of the problem.

I'm convinced that "ssh" is the only sane way for pushing. If you don't 
trust somebody enough to give him ssh access, you shouldn't trust him with 
write access to your project in the first place.

Agreed, I brought that up only so I could dismiss it :)  

So I don't worry about pushing. I think we've got that covered. It's 
really the anonymous pulling that needs something.

So long as we remember there is a tradeoff between efficiency and
ease of setup for anonymous access and small projects.
