In the worst case it's always possible to rewind the file and read forward word by word until the desired position is reached. This is the default NULL implementation. Many formats can be served by by_five_octets or by_eight_octets.

Unverified but "obviously correct". I'll leave it until there are actual applications to make some tests.
