maybe the patches/source-filter_dest-filter.diff is interesting for you !?

i did not test it, but it looks related to what you want.

+dit(bf(--source-filter=COMMAND)) This option allows the user to specify a
+filter program that will be applied to the contents of all transferred
+regular files before the data is sent to destination.  COMMAND will receive
+the data on its standard input and it should write the filtered data to
+standard output.  COMMAND should exit non-zero if it cannot process the
+data or if it encounters an error when writing the data to stdout.
+
+Example: --source-filter="gzip -9" will cause remote files to be
+compressed.
+Use of --source-filter automatically enables --whole-file.
+If your filter does not output the same number of bytes that it received on
+input, you should use --times-only to disable size and content checks on
+subsequent rsync runs.
+
+dit(bf(--dest-filter=COMMAND)) This option allows you to specify a filter
+program that will be applied to the contents of all transferred regular
+files before the data is written to disk.  COMMAND will receive the data on
+its standard input and it should write the filtered data to standard
+output.  COMMAND should exit non-zero if it cannot process the data or if
+it encounters an error when writing the data to stdout.
+
+Example: --dest-filter="gzip -9" will cause remote files to be compressed.
+Use of --dest-filter automatically enables --whole-file.
+If your filter does not output the same number of bytes that it
+received on input, you should use --times-only to disable size and
+content checks on subsequent rsync runs.
