Elliotte Rusty Harold commented on IO-839:
------------------------------------------

I'd like to see the need for this one. It's sort of a weird thing to do. If 
there's a need for this beyond one project, fine. Otherwise it's best left in 
compress.

Also https://xkcd.com/927/ applies. Copying the code into commons-io does not 
remove it from commons-compress. 

If you're willing to break the API in commons-compress, there are likely better 
ways to hide idiosyncratic APIs like this one. Mostly just make them 
non-public.
