There is https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-118 which at one point in time was the issue with the most votes IIRC. Around the time the ZipSlip vulnerability had to be fixed in various projects we discussed adding such a high-level API to Compress. You can find some code that I sketched back then inside of the examples package. At that time the majority of Compress developers felt a high-level API was out-of-scope for Compress and many people felt effort should rather be spent at Commons VFS.
