Okay, but just very surprising that support was added in JDK 7 without changes 
to the API docs or other documentation (from a quick search).

If we are retrofitting the APIs docs then I think treat "GZIP" as a file 
format. It may require adding overrides so there is a place to document the 
behavior when reading an entry roll over into the next stream.
