I have no particular allergy to having DragonDOS binary files supported. 
I also have no particular personal motivation to implement it.

In general, I will entertain patches from anyone who wishes to add 
features. If you do submit patches, do make sure you match the existing 
coding style of lwtools. I will reject without review any patch which 
doesn't.

Alternatively, I may be convinced to take an interest in your pet 
feature in exchange for a sufficient bribe and an accurate and complete 
description of the feature, including any related specifications.

Remember: lwtools is open source. I don't sell it. I don't make any 
money from it unless folks feel like making donations, which mostly 
doesn't happen. I'm not complaining, mind you. If I wanted to make money 
from it, I wouldn't have made it open source. But since I don't derive 
any actual benefits from it, work on lwtools tends to be relatively low 
priority and mostly focused on what I need from it.
