All the existing formats are targeting viz. I think it's cleaner to have only one IO mechanism that needs to be optimized, but viz plugins are inconvenient at present and support for mock-in-situ (viz application uses application to load and compute derived quantities) is sorely lacking. There is a relevant DOE call out now with preproposals due next week. If this is important and we can organize a plan of action, it may be worth submitting a preproposal.
