I've changed my mind and won't waste Core's time on this. The work was
done with good intent, but I was simply mistaken -- there's no point
in adding support for arbitrary codecs (XML and binary are sufficient
and pledit will help wherever direct human manipulation is needed[*]).

Consider the proposal withdrawn, and sorry about the amount the spam it
induced (although some good technical points raised as well as some
wildly delusioned replies have been a true eye opener on the subject).

    emacs-or-such with a "plist mode")
