Hm.  Good question.  On the one hand, it should be possible to say
that the file should be saved to "something.gz" to signal that you
want "something" to be gzipped.  But if the thing already has been
gzipped, and you just want to save it, that's not possible.  So I
don't know how to work around this problem...
