Hey Bjorn, not really. All intraframe codecs are comparatively large, compared to well compressed group of picture interframe encoding. This makes them unsuitable for most portable storage devices from a consumer point of view. Also most portable hardware that is good at playing back video has a hardware decoder on it, which is why they can playback h.264 smoothly with lower cpu overheads.
Its pretty standard for a shooting format to be different from a deliverable format due to bandwith limitations. As cpu powerand gpu power increases that hardware will continue to make editing highly compressed formats easier, but there is no free launch.
