Augmented diffs is one of the most awaited features for me, thanks for
implementing :3

It makes possible to eliminate the need for slim tables in osm2pgsql
database. However, there's one problem still left: multipolygons.

For now, osm2pgsql handles type=multipolygon,boundary,route relations
in a special way, converting them into OGC geometry features.

Is it possible to include all the members of relations on changes of a
single element of them, at least for these type= values?

If it is, then it's technically possible to drop all the slim tables
for osm2pgsql or implement diffs support for imposm.
