Is it actually in use anywhere? There are far more compression formats than I 
could ever implement, so I try to limit it to ones that actually see some use.

Well, yes, you have the point. However, lz4 is getting into the kernel 
(http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTQwODY), so this might be 
the reason for its wider usage.

I'm just suggesting, didn't have the intention to wine about adding new feature 
(I know how it can be annoying). :)
