Does it make sense to attach the content of a file to a node as a property

InputStream in = new FileInputStream("/foo/bar.gif");
if (in != null) {
 n.setProperty("data", ...);
}

I would rather use a sub node of type nt:file, which then defines a jcr:content node of type nt:resource. nt:resource defines useful properties such as jcr:encoding, jcr:mimeType, etc. or you could also use a nt:resource node directly as a child node of your content structure.
