Adding hi-res textures is already on the todo list, the problem is that the small download size of AC wouldn't be so small after packaging them. tempest or someone had come up with an idea about only needing the hi-res texture, and having the code scale them down to low-res without any performance loss - this would ideally be the best way to implement it IMO. The package size of AC would still increase, but not nearly as much as having two versions of each texture.
Of course, there is nothing stopping people from packaging hi-res replacement textures as a mod and distributing it to the public - sure it's not as convenient but it would work nonetheless.
