I'd say with the current excess of open file handles, zip2tar is pretty 
useless.

Instead of writing and maintaining two new libraries for ZIP and TAR 
handling, would it work to submit improved getEntrySource based on Conduit 
to the 'zip' package project and use Bluefin only in zip2tar? Or do I 
still need Bluefin at all, once getEntrySource is updated?
