assembly/archiver/snappy

What would the path be to adding support for snappy-compressed files
to the assembly plugin?

bz2 compression takes forever in Java.

I am building an OSGi bundle that embeds a large, compressed, archive
that gets uncompressed at provisioning time to populate a directory of
files that can be mapped into memory. So, I hypothesize that it will
be materially faster to build if I use Snappy to compress. I currently
build this item using the maven-assembly-plugin with .tar.bz2, I'd
like to use .tar.snappy' instead.

Out of curiosity, how do you plan to use snappy compressed files and why?
