I found bug 619293 and its attached use case. I think I have a solution that
works fine (I think it works even better) without new API.

I should probably elaborate on why I don't like APIs like this:
My problem is that it's not a byte writer's job to care about nesting. A byte
writer's job is to care about writing bytes to a data buffer and that should be
it. There's nothing against sophisticated APIs for doing this kind of job, but
keeping the API focussed on this one job is an important thing IMO.
