Hi everyone,

I have once more come across this issue and would like to share with you
why I think this feature should be enabled:

I have several devices with small flash storage: Openmoko GTA02,
Goldelico GTA04, Beaglebone
and quite a few slow SD-Cards class-10, and devices that can't do UHS-1:
Cubox, Cubox-i, RaspberryPi

The first group would benefit by requiring less disk space for the
Kernel. That is either a custom kernel where the vendor enables
comrpessed modules, or in the future the Debian Kernel if maintainers
can be persuaded to enable that feature (which obviously depends on this
very issue).

The second group will benefit from faster updates of kernels (with such
compression enabled).

Maintainers, please reconsider enabling this feature.

Yours sincerely
Josua Mayer
