Perhaps part of the chain could be included.
I was just trying to find a way to make it a little easier to start up a new wallet!

Isn't it possible to compile a new wallet in for instance every two months containing the blockchain from start to the date the new wallet is released?
So you basically download part of the blockchain along with the wallet's zip. Yes you're wallet's total size increases but even 20 MB is now downloaded in a few minutes, syncing a 20mb block chain takes many hours.

I have found it's very difficult to find a location where you can download a stable block-chain to boot strap your wallet and get it up and running faster.
Last time I did this I used torrents to distribute the files and that was a lot of work.
This time I loaded all the block-chains into a google drive ... and here you go:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B_HANVbqy0JlRVFiaXB3OFY1Rnc&usp=sharing
The file is named with the coin name - Coin Tag - Wallet Version Number.7z
Please let me know if you run into any problems... or any other block chains you would like loaded.
Have fun!!
