I didn't know that a simple recategorisation would get such a hot response!

Even if I did rip Compression apart - which it seems now that I don't
need to do - you would neither know nor care about it in your
configuration scripts unless you were doing something highly
specialised like making a near-minimal image.

And if you _were_ making such a special image, I suspect you'd _want_
such precise control.

But when you've read my other mail you'll see it's a fool's errand to
try split Compression into Compression-Archives and
Compression-Streams because you'd just have a cyclic dependency
between the two. I'm trying to remove _all_ cyclic dependencies.
