It could be nice to add what are the standard/supported methods

Sure. But I do not know them, I just decided to document this one
because I had to search for the information recently.

  There is currently only one: tar - and if you don't override the 
commands, tar is used regardless of filetype or extension.

  It supports three compression types: gzip (extension .gz or .tgz), 
bzip2 (extension .bz2, .tbz or .tbz2), and xz (extension .xz).

  Feel free to copy the above directly :-)

I do not think that the list of XXX_CMDS variables is the right place to
document the default behavior without them.

Of course whe should have a documentation of the default behaior
somewhere in the manual, but I am not enough familiar with this topic to
write it.

So I suggest to commit my patch as it is, it still applies to HEAD.
