Has anyone ever considered storing binary data into an index? In

an index mapping that must be kept in memory. Unfortunately it seems
Lucene can only store strings in document fields, not raw byte[]s, but
there may be a good reason for this?

You could always use some sort of binary to String encoding. Base64 should work, although one could probably devise more efficient encodings to unicode, space-wise.
