The server is already prepared to accept binary data, the change just
needs to be made in the driver. The place to start is definitely with
Mikko Tiihonen's patches to do this already[1] and assorted mailing list
discussion. His patches already do ninety something percent of what we
need. I unfortunately don't recall the exact state of the patches and
what the open issues are, so the first place to start is the archives.
