I'm hoping to add BZIP2 compression to zipfile for 2.5. My primary motivation is that Project Gutenberg seems to be starting to use BZIP2 compression for some of its zips. What other wish list things do people around here have for zipfile? I thought I'd collect input here and make a PEP.
I can open a pseudo-file for STORED files in binary read mode, for example, to allow reading zip-in-zip files without fully occupying memory.
