Sounds like this command line interface will help out big time:

which allows you to download all distribution profiles like so (thanks @tdubik):

ios profiles:download:all --type distribution

Another approach would be to use an Enterprise development license ($300/year) that lets you build for devices without provisioning! So you can build your app, and send it to a device without ever needing to go to the Apple Dev center or register any new devices.

Note that this wouldn't allow you to distribute your app to the appstore, but if you're a development house that builds tons of apps for clients, it may ease your "build and send to clients" process quite a piece! I'm not sure if this would be in Apple's legitimate use policies or not, so please check that out before considering that option. But it might be something to consider for prototypes, etc, and when they actually want to ship it, you get them to get their own developer program license.
