Comment:

 In fact, I would argue for an implementation that simply doesn't send or
 accept ".z". An optimal implementation would support ".z", ".lzma",
 ".zstd", and whatever, but there's no need to. This interface is intended
 for programmatic clients only; any human access is for debugging purposes
 only.
