Subject: proposal for binary data literal node



XDI TC:

I'm attaching a proposal to represent binary literal values as "!!"

So, for example, the XRI for a my company's logo might be :
  @!1111*logo!!

The fact that the image is a binary can't be represented in the metadata, because it is not known which will be loaded first, the literal node, or the metadata about the literal node.

This is a critical issue to optimize persistence of binary objects, which need to be indexed differently.

I'd like to fast track this because we need to store binaries as part of the oxPlus demo :)

Thoughts?

thx,

- Mike
