Feature request: Packed Repeated Fields

[dn]

Do you think it would be hard to implement Packed Repeated Fields?

I think you'd basically need to add the [packed=true] understanding to the code generator, and then plumb that through to the parser and emitter, and have them tweak their behavior when that flag is set. So it'd touch quite a few different files, but overall it shouldn't be too difficult. I'd happily accept such a patch, if it has sufficient tests.
