Also don't forget that while linking is the hardest part of this ZIP
circus there is another missing piece -- normative definition of
portable and RF subset of ZIP. SC34 started some initial work on such
ZIP profile recently:

http://www.itscj.ipsj.or.jp/sc34/open/1855.pdf

So if some sort of ZIP packaging spec should to appear then it should
reference such subset of ZIP not the full definition of ZIP format from
PKWare.
