I would be happy to add it to contrib if people want it there. 
There was some discussion of that when I wrote it, but then there
was a feeling that it would be uninteresting once people had
streaming replication.  I'm skeptical that people will ever lose
interest in archiving WAL files, because of the not-uncommon need to
keep archival backups or restore to a "point in time" to recover
from a mangled table.  As long as those needs are there, I suspect
that people will want to compress WAL files, including making
partially-filled files smaller.
