This requires finding (or creating) a pure-Rust deflate library, capable of compressing and decompressing, with approximately the same performance as miniz.

My understanding is that there are only 2 zlib encoders written in pure rust. One is zopfli. The other is the crate "deflate", which is what piston's png library now uses. https://github.com/oyvindln/deflate-rs I'm not sure about its performance compared to miniz.
