Agreed. We already do produce some informational messages via the
documented 'ZipFile.debug' attribute. Just checking that flag and
producing a message to stdout like we do in other cases is one option.
Another, as you suggested already, is to provide a strict flag
that indicates an exception should be thrown upon encountering an
ill-formed file.
I like the idea of reusing what we already have. Although, when it
fails, it doesn't fail loudly.
