> we could consider an API addition

Just brainstorming here... perhaps an API addition would be most appropriate in 
the shutil module (https://docs.python.org/3.6/library/shutil.html) which 
already contains shutil.make_archive and shutil.unpack_archive. One could 
imagine shutil.compress and shutil.decompress that took a format argument to 
specify the compression type.
