I'm guilty and I have been busy by other stuff. Sorry for that.
Fortunately, I discussed this issue with Hugh in this Linuxcon for a
long time(Thanks Hugh!) he felt zram's block device abstraction is
better design rather than frontswap backend stuff although it's a question
where we put zsmalloc. I will CC Hugh because many of things is related
to swap subsystem and his opinion is really important.
And I discussed it with Rik and he feel positive about zram.

To clarify that, I agree with Minchan that there are certain
workloads where zram is probably more appropriate than zswap.

For most of the workloads that I am interested in, zswap will
be more interesting, but zram seems to have its own niche, and
I certainly do not want to hold back the embedded folks...
