I have been assuming that without the "magic" code, we'd need to do 
something like this anyway for the "decoder" feature. I don't think 
writing a ungzipper script using the file command would be difficult.

Since I'm about to submit the ExternalTransport class which is very 
similar and there's still more to finish, my vote is:

+1

This is obviously a bit of a hack. I do think the feature works as an 
extension of the ExternalParser class, and I think the config syntax 
makes sense. So it looks like we'll have to re-think this code 
shortly.
