I think yes, but with some restrictions, because some formats have unique
specific features that are not shared among another formats.
What is the boost policy about depending on a third-party software? Of
course, I do not want to reinvent the wheel and write yet another
implementation of zlib library.

Yes, I completely agree that this will be more "Boost-ish" and my current
implementation lacks of some generality. So, probably, at this point I will
release my library as free-standing code on a resource like GitHub or
GoogleCode.
