Well, you skim over performance, it'd be nice to get some figures of how much faster/slower it is. Binary size may also be a factor in some situations (if zlib is included static). How often is zlib not available? I mean, afaik, it's even present on MSVC builds or iPhone/Android builds. I think we sort of have to quantify how much of an issue this really is.
