Robert Burrell Donkin commented on RAT-22:
------------------------------------------

Plan to switch to system of pluggable MIME meta-data.  Once this is done, 
should be able to load additional data locally.

> [MOJO-1086] Allow user to specify binary file types

> [Moved from MOJO-1086]
> RAT may incorrectly process some binary file types.
> These can obviously be excluded entirely, but it would sometimes be useful to 
> show the filenames in the report as Binary.
> Perhaps a config item could be added to allow addtional file-types to be 
> processed as binary?
> [For example .ear files are currently not treated as binary]
> Equally, there may be file types that RAT thinks are binary, but which are 
> not.
