Having an option for compressing sounds good to me, but I get a little bit worried to support two extensions. It is transparent for the user of the archive. As the archive usually contains binaries (which again might be compressed already), I'm not sure if there is a significant benefit in compressing the archive (in terms of the size of the archive).

If you need this I would suggest using different extensions for the
compressed and uncompressed formats - I suspect builds would add both
to the Maven repository in this case?

So maybe .far and .zfar
