I guess what I'm asking in essence is am I correct in saying external, quickbms-native COMTYPEs aren't supported.

Use xtool.ini to add COMTYPEs that QuickBMS supports. Bear in mind that QuickBMS built in compression can vary wildly from that of what the original input file is compressed with so this is really only suitable for encryption algorithms where you're more likely to get a correct output.
Also, not every algorithm that QBMS can decompress it can also compress - such as LZ2K, of which no compression code exists publicly.
You also have totally different implementations of algos althogether such as LZSS where it's basically different every time you see it.
In short xtool.ini compression with QuickBMS is hit/miss.
