Very cool. When I wrote FilterBase as base class for gzip + bzip2, I was wondering
"what are the odds that there is ever going to be another compression library
with a similar API?" -- turns out that lzma has rather similar API so it fits --- very nice!
I like the implementation of readHeader too :-)
Patch looks good (apart from the things Thiago pointed out already)
