I think there's a simple way to accomplish this - have cbfstool create "null" files that contain all the empty space. Then the users of cbfs (eg, coreboot, seabios) wouldn't need any special code - they would skip them just like they skip over any other file.
yes, this is easy. A simple post-pass like I did with LAR, take all empty segments and turn them into "null" files.
LZMA decoding -- cbfs will let us have several types of decoders available, one being lzma. cbfs is not done, it's work in progress but I do see real progress. Things are going to be pretty good in the next few weeks.
