Your concerns are understood, for BLOBs that are truely large. But what about short pieces of binary data. (Do you call them BOBs?) For example, what about that 30-byte unicode string that just happens to contain embedded NULs. Or a 75-byte GIF image. I'd like to be able to put those kinds of things directly into a column of an SQLite table. Even an indexed column. Unfortunately, a file format change is going to be required to achieve that goal, I think.
