Charles, IMHO, built-in support for dispersed storage is way beyond the scope of rsync. Just use rsync to access a filesystem on the virtual block device provided by Cleversafe. It is true that this won't give you delta transfers. Neither will, say, Amazon S3. It would be interesting to look into establishing an interface for storage services to provide checksumming and/or delta-transfer capabilities to programs like rsync.
