Yep, we only use ZIP for modules currently in existence.  Back when we
started compressing, we testing a few each of big & small files at various
granularities & with each of the compression methods and decided that ZIP
was always better.

So until/unless STEP support is made functional, LZSS is pretty much
deprecated, which should cut some of the work you have to do.
