Looks good to me too: +1

I wouldn't mind seeing some iteration-in-C bit-bashing operations in 
there eventually, but they aren't needed on the first pass, and even 
being able to do things like the following will be a decent improvement 
over the status quo for low-level bitstream manipulation:

   data = bytes([x & 0x1F for x in orig_data])

Cheers,
Nick.
