 This allows various languages to implement the xpra protocol, specifying which encoder they want to use (bencode is more widely available than rencode).

 === lz4 vs zcompress ===
 As of version {{{0.11.0}}}, xpra supports [https://pypi.python.org/pypi/lz4 lz4] compression and will use it instead of the default [http://docs.python.org/2/library/zlib.html zlib] when {{{LEVEL}}} is set to 1 and both ends support the compression mode. More information here: #443
