There's rawa data in SQL.

Being able to store binary data in a format is maybe unfriendly to someone at one point but that's trivial compared to the advantages that this feature

Err... Xavier... Err... XML cannot contain binay data... it's on the spec... nothing forbids you to do that, but somewhere, in some old RFC, we all agreed we would not put binary data on XML files, you should uucode, base64 or create some sane way to pack binary data in XML, or you might end up with corrupted data as your xml travels different networks and different systems.

There are many ways to encode binary data for XML transportation... Inserting raw binary data into a XML node doesn't sound right for me.
