It might be that files might not be identifiable because of some amount of padding at the beginning or end of a file. An experimental feature for Roy/Siegfried might see the potential to extend the size of all BOF offsets for all signatures in a signature file, e.g. always look for a BOF beyond the first 0-n bytes. This could be the same for EOF. It might enable the identification of less uniform data than PRONOM like signatures are normally looking for.
I suppose too the BOF/EOF limitation could also be removed entirely and this would lend itself to potentially match all sequences in a given stream of data. That might be a separate experimental feature? Performance would be interesting to understand.
