.tar.gz is not that uncommon, I would say. And once you have .tar.gz, support for .tar.bz2 is trivial to add.

And I would say that if you are attempting to open an archive on Google Docs Viewer, it's probably an archive of documents, and I would say that almost all archives of documents are in .zip or .rar.

On Unix, as tar has been built-in to Unix for decades.

It is uncommon to the regular user, though, who is probably the one targeted by this feature.
