I talked about zip in particular. In a more general sense, I'm not a big
fan of tar.gz/tar.bz2 either. Anything that not only compresses but also

It's interesting that you mention the wiki page though: Did you read the
"Dos and Don'ts" section?
Your point's clear now. Yes, I read the section, which is why I said
"...in the latter case...". I know zip files are a no-no.
I hope these people have by now opened tickets with the respective
vendors.
