-z filter through gzip, bzip, bzip2 as appropriate
That would be a nice thing. If tar would behave like that, one could
make gzip or bzip2 deb files depending on once likeing. With todays
Computers (486+) the speed isn't that relevant and on slow computers
and installation takes ages anyway, so you normaly start it and do
something else in parallel.
May the Source be with you.
