I have been thinking about a similar thing, namely using compression for
iSCSI. So having a device-mapper target here would make for a good testbed.
But having it in the block-layer would be really cool, and would have
applications in other areas (eg swap from zram?).

So yeah, I'm in for it.

Cheers,
