Add some kind of "Unarchive to..." entry to the context menu.

I would request that if you do add this to the program, that it be optional, as 
I'd
prefer not to have another thing in my context menu.

This feature can be implemented either as a service, which can be accessed 
through the context menu in all 
Cocoa applications (including the Finder) under OS X 10.6. Service items can 
also be easily disabled under OS X 
10.6. Users of prior versions of OS X can still access this feature, just not 
through the context menu.

Another way is to implement this as an automator action. A user can easily make 
a finder plugin (a sample work 
flow could also be packaged with the application) using the packaged action and 
it would be accessible through 
Finder's context menu.

I'd only see this as something useful if The Unarchiver also made compressed 
files.

Implemented as a service, as suggested. Seems to work fine on Snow Leopard.
