compression in LO and other fields

Hi,

in TODO is the item "Allow compression of large fields or a
compressed field type". It is good idea, but it prabably needs
binary field firstly (or not?).

I see the inv_api and other LO routines, and my idea is add support
for bzip2 stream to the inv_api and allow in current LO routines used
compression. It si good idea?
