I did some experiments on reusing existing BinaryType but it does not quite
work as expected.
BinaryType is originally a case object, thus the length field in it will be
shared among all apps. We have to change BinaryType to class class to hold the
length information. However, it breaks all codes that assume BinaryType is case
object.
Do you have any suggestion?
