With the rise in very large tar archives ( 44G+ ) there are a number of
compression techniques that are taking advantage of lz4 compression and
using a system pipe to pass between tar and the compression utility.  This
is occurring for compressing/decompressing various blockchains at backup
points.

Are there any plans to incorporate lz4 compression/decompression into tar
like we see for gzip (-z) and bzip2 (-j) ?


Thank you,
