I really needed to double check I wasn't getting accross in a strange way since that would be the last thing I wanted to do. Thanks. The "ZipExtraHeader is hard coded to be four byte" issue is next up on my list and I hope to find some time next week to look more deeply into this issue. I'll start by adding a bunch of tests and will try to see where we get. This doesn't mean that nobody else could get there before me. One of the bigger problems of the <zip> family of tasks is that they are very old, have a lot of protected methods and that we know they are used as extension points by many external libs - so any change must live inside the constraints of API backwards compatibility - that's why the code is what it is.
