Description
Created originally in Butane by @Zackaryia: https://github.com/coreos/butane/issues/670
Always output inlined or other source in plaintext if an option is passed to allow inspecting the .ign file more easily.
Reference #94 to see where the compression was added, and what files can be modified to undo it on feature flag.

Research direction
Start with issue #94 and the files changed for compression and feature flags. Trace the Ignition CLI option handling and the paths that emit inlined or other source content; done means an option causes all such strings in the .ign output to remain plaintext for easier inspection.
