There is a proposition to add a command line interface to tarfile
module. It will be useful on platforms where tar is not included in the
base system.
The question is about interface. Should it be a subset of tar options
(-t as --extract, -t as --list, -f to specify an archive name) or be
similar to the zipfile module interface (-e as --extract, -l as --list,
the first positional parameter is an archive name)? There are different
opinions.
