James Taylor commented on PHOENIX-1329:
---------------------------------------
Our arrays were really designed to store arrays of other primitive types, not
arbitrary arrays of arbitrary bytes (i.e. VARBINARY VARBINARY [] aren't really
supported and we should flag it as an error). We should brainstorm about this -
maybe for your use case you can just use a VARBINARY and serialize the raw
bytes yourself? If you're planning on querying the data, then the story might
be different, but otherwise, VARBINARY is the way to go.
> Correctly support varbinary arrays

> Storing arrays of binary data can contain 0x00, which Phoenix uses a the
> field separator. This leads phoenix to return arrays incorrectly - shortening
> them prematurely.
