configure or disable compression

The configuration of the compression scheme used doesn't seem to be anything we can control. Please add relevant configuration to allow us to control this.
Use case: my filesystem (zfs) is already performing compression and de-duplication. Zipping up backups is actually detrimental to disk consumption in such a case.
Even better, if backups could optionally be simple copies into directories instead of using an archive at all, that would be an excellent (and presumably easy to implement) way to handle this use case.
