As they are already in SUSE there's no RFE. An example of a package where uncompressed payload is useful is out "installation-images" package. It's a meta package that is not shipped to customers, but used for image creation purposes. Compression just slows down the build process. One of the uses of _specfile is in our "find-supplements" dependency generator script that needs to extract information from the specfile when creating dependencies.
