[gdal-dev] RasterIO support for zlib / deflate compression?

Even,

It is not my compression, and although it isn't formalised yet, I think its
probably too late to change. I'll take it back to the NTB in any case. 
The specific case is for "good enough" compression of floating point data
without (further) loss.

Thanks for the CPLZLibDeflate() helper recommendation - appreciated.
