A good idea.  Might be possible to make this a transparent fallback so no
special handling is needed in drivers at all (e.g. emulate the block read using
the biggest read that is available) - taking care about the endian fun and
games that results.

Propose it to Wolfram and the i2c list and see what people think of it.
