Can the color registers be modified fast enough to emulate chunky mode?

1/5 of 16 pixels for 5 bit planes.
What is the limitation of a bit-plane system?
It seems to be a flexible system.
It looks as one could design a chip to move almost any number of bits at a time.

The progression seems to be toward chunky anyway. :)
The C64 and eventually the C65 would benefit from the Planar System.
