There is one small "technical" reason that may have been missed: any
deltarpm whose source rpm was created before rpm 4.4.2.1 came out will
not have had its %doc files delta'd.  This isn't a major problem, but it
will mean that those deltarpms will be larger.

See http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=235353 for more
information about the bug (which is now fixed).
