No, I was serious that you need to provide 'uncompressed' as an explicit
enum value.  It is very annoying to toggle between four states (three
compression formats and a fourth state of no compression) when the
fourth is available only by omitting a parameter.  The default MUST be
'uncompressed' for backwards-compatibility, not 'zlib'.
