Quite some time ago, I toyed around with an implementation of buffer streams (actually, with two implementations, but the files matching *2.* seem very incomplete, that's likely where I got distracted).  AFAICT, the code implements input-streams, and you want output-streams, but that should not be that much of a problem anymore to add.

I have no idea about the status of the code (attached), but perhaps it gives you some ideas.  To be put in contrib/, I guess.   Feel free to do whatever with the code.
