Multi-volume compressed dumps on DVDs

Has anyone looked at modifying dump/restore to support:
1) Dumping onto DVDs (sending the appropriate "close volume" command)
2) Compressed multi-volume dumps
   This means monitoring the compressed data stream and flushing the
   compress engine state at the end of each volume (so that each volume
   remains a independent entity for restore purposes).
