I don't know what you mean by this. I think the specification stuff
could be reused in a lot of places. If you can ask for a base backup
with zstd:level=3,long=1,fancystuff=yes or whatever we end up with,
why not enable exactly the same for every other place that uses
compression? I don't know what "client-server requirements" is or what
that has to do with this.
