Feature request: MODE-Z compatibility in ftp client.

I have sent it to Christian, but I guess posting here won't hurt.

I'm not sure if you are aware but raidenftpd has released a new version of
their server which presents quite unique solution.

Quote:"20 years ago, streaming mode and clear text transmission were used on FTP. Until several years ago, SSL/TLS encryption was introduced. Now FTP evolves again! We are glad to introduce you the MODE Z technology - on the fly data compression -

note : MODE Z implementation is based on IETF draft, and is not a
proprietary protocol of RaidenFTPD, the original authors of the draft are
J. Preston (NSC) and TJ Saunders"

Since TC is listed as one of their recommendations, are there any plans to
include it in newer versions of TC?

That improvement sounds REALLY interesting.

I'm currently in contact with the RaidenFTPd author about mode Z, and I will probably add it in the next major release if it isn't causing too many troubles.
