 > My question is if it wouldn't be more advantageous to create some
 wrapper which would take the all necessary inputs including compression
 type and do the necessary switches and format specific things.

 Agreed.

 In practical terms, there are only two distinct cases: uncompressed (where
 the size of the data read or written matches the size of the data stored
 in the file) and compressed (where the sizes differ). Everything else is
 just options.
