Thanks for opening this bug entry. I looked at this scenario in the last week, too, and I'd love to have this enabled. In my experiment, I didn't change dracut to uncompress, but yes, that's more efficient, indeed. But, the debuginfo extraction doesn't seem working as is for *.ko.xz. This seems requiring to hack rpm itself. The hacked version is found in OBS home:tiwai:test:kernel-compress repo. And, what's still not checked is about our signing procedure. This needs more checks by other people...
