We really need a well documented binary type.
Let's collect all binary type relevant issues here and create it!

1.	Generated Java code for structures containing binary fields (or collections thereof) are not serializable (in the Java sense) even though they implement java.io.Serializable	Closed	Mathias Herberts
2.	Switch binary field implementation from byte[] to ByteBuffer	Closed	Bryan Duxbury
3.	Python library + compiler does not support unicode strings	Closed	Nathan Marz
4.	Make binary a full-fledged type of its own	Closed	James E. King III
5.	Support non-UTF-8 in Java and C#	Closed	Unassigned
6.	[Ruby] Provide support for binary types	Closed	Henrique Mendonca
7.	Ruby-1.9: data loss: "binary" fields are re-encoded	Closed	Unassigned
8.	Ruby-1.9: "binary" fields are represented by string whose encoding is "UTF-8"	Closed	Unassigned
9.	Container types containing binary data are parameterized with ByteBuffer in the generated Java code	Closed	Unassigned
10.	Improved string encoding and decoding performance	Closed	Bryan Duxbury
11.	binary type isn't documented nor demonstrated in the tutorial	Closed	Jérémie BORDIER
12.	Can't assign binary fields default values	Closed	James E. King III
13.	Integrate binary type in standard Thrift cross test	Closed	Jens Geyer
