sure, but this is not really intuitive to use ;)
Esp. not when you use this more often. cvs has a rdiff command what similar to 
this functionality, doing the diff on the server side.

osc diff is just for a checked out package, right ?

an equivalent for cvs rdiff would work without any checked out sources, just

 osc rdiff <TO_PROJECT> <TO_PACKAGE> [--package <FROM_PACKAGE>] [--project 
<FROM_PROJECT>]

hm, maybe even default to "--project openSUSE:Factory" if no argument is 
given ...
