Why is compaction an unwanted feature ?
It is misguided. It is a feature to save space, but a continually used DB will consume free space anyway.
If the DB is not going to be in continual use, then LMDB already provides offline compaction, so nothing more is needed.

Hi
I know that LMDB currently does not support compaction, but I'm interested in knowing if such a feature is being worked on.
No.
And if not, is it a feature that can be merged into LMDB if implemented?
No. But feel free to fork the code and add it to your fork.
