Currently array module only provides platform-dependent type specifiers.
It would be very nice to have platform-independent specifiers in addition to that, matching the struct module.
For example array('<H') -> an array of little-endian 2-byte integers.
This issue crops up every time when I use array(). Binary data usually comes in some predefined format and a manual matching to native format has to be done (assuming I want to write portable code).
A useful extra would be to support multi-element struct specifiers and present an array of tuples in this case.
For example array('iff') -> an array of tuples (int, float, float) with native types.
