2) Yes. The idea with streaming is that everything is done on the fly in a forward-only stream of bytes. You ought to be able to chain the output of a a current entry on a ZipReader to another ZipReader and have it work.

Now I've read a bit more about the structure of ZIP files, I am under the impression that the directory of entries is stored at the end of the stream.
How can the chaining you describe work with a forward-only stream of bytes?
