There is an unfinished TODO item here: we really ought to make it work

Right. Were you thinking this should be done for 8.4?
If you have time to look into it, sure. Otherwise we should just put it
on the TODO list.
I've had a look at this. If our tar code supported out of order
restoration(using fseeko) I'd be done. But it doesn't, and I won't get
that done for 8.4, if at all. I'm not sure what would be involved in
making it work.
