Beware, we do *not* want to use it for zip, because as said, our zip
has a custom extention to handle xattrs, so we'd loose that.

Unless someone sends them a diff adding the same xattr support on 7z of
course.
(btw it has some limitations anyway on the attribute size, I recall
hitting it once with an SVG icon in zeta...)
