Given that the code is signed, I'm surprised that iDevices that have already upgraded the hard way don't advertise a "update available" service on local networks. Individual devices don't care where the updates come from, so long as the signatures are good.
Going the other way, Apple will have local update caching as part of MDM for iOS 7 when it is fully upgraded and rolled out to support iOS for enterprises. But the big push with BYOD is that employees manage their own iDevices..
