Yes, that sounds like an excellent plan to me.  If it becomes obvious
during design that there are substantial commonalities across a number
of concrete archivers, then the design can be refactored to generalize
at that stage.  Otherwise, let's just build them, see if people use
them and if commonalities appear later the refactoring could be a GSoC
project.

Exactly!
