I do think providing a rawfile field in the ZipInfo struct helps. As a library, ZipFile should let users know what they are dealing with. Users can get data from zip files, and ZipFile shouldn't corrupt them. I don't mean that we should provide everything in raw bytes. What I mean is that DATA could be CONVERTED, but couldn't be CORRUPTED.
