Hi! I am using Okio on a project where I need to index a file. I was naively looking for a BufferedSource property that tells me how many bytes I have already read. It seems there is no direct mean to do that. I have routines that read individual packets from a BufferedSource. How would you proceed?

Wrap your BufferedSource into another one that delegates to it and increments a byte counter?

@mbonnin yeah, this was my initial though but unfortunately BufferedSource is a sealed interface.

Does anyone see another way to proceed than to wrap BufferedSource? @jw Would you consider this a sufficient use-case to unseal the BufferedSource interface? Or maybe should I contribute an OffsetCountingSource directly to okio? (PS: I see that Source from kotlinx-io is also sealed.)
