You _can_ use a two-column matrix with counts of successes and failures in the 
two columns

And if you know what the number n of observations was (which you would need to 
anyway for using proportions in a logistic regression) youcan calculate that 
matrix from the proportions and n, as long as you're reasonably careful about 
rounf=ding.
