New submission from Sworddragon: tarfile.open() does support optionally an compression method on the mode argument in the form of 'filemode[:compression]' but tarfile.TarFile() does only suport 'a', 'r' and 'w'. Is there a special reason that tarfile.TarFile() doesn't directly support an optional compression method? Otherwise it would be nice if they could be used directly on tarfile.TarFile() too.
