Further Thoughts
This might not be that helpful now as we support only a GZip streams. But would we (or contributor :-)) decide to add support for other compression mechanisms - it would become a must. Then we'd probably use the signature to flip between the deflation streams implementations (or throw more descriptively if unknown).
Possible support of uncompressed stream might be nice as well - I found myself quite a few times uncompressing the binlog to troubleshoot various issues with it, but then being unable to use it as is.
