   |So when looking at adopting jzlib for Eclipse, I noticed that Java Bug
   |4255743 [2](lack of Z_PARTIAL_FLUSH in the JRE's implementation of jzlib)
   |has been marked as resolved in Java 7.
   |I'm wondering what this means for JSch. Would it make sense to make JSch's
   |Compression support pluggable such that it can optionally leverage
   |the Java 7 zlib support when it's available?

Yes, it makes sense.
Here is an example program to demonstrate the packet compression without jzlib,
  http://www.jcraft.com/jsch/examples/CompressionJUZ.java
If we are allowed to use Java7 API in Eclipse Platform plug-ins,
such a functionality may be added to org.eclipse.jsch.core plug-in.

   |And, would that work while at the same time keeping JSch compatible with
   |J2SE-1.4 level JRE's (with respect to the classfile format) ?
   |And for me personally, does it still make any sense to adopt jzlib
   |for Eclipse ?

It depends on how required the packet compression of JSch on Eclipse
platform is. I have not heard about so many requests for it,
so it may not be so urgent, IMHO.
