This has historic reasons because without ;binary another LDAP-specific encoding could be transferred. There has never been such a encoding defined. But you MUST use ;binary for attributes with syntax 'X.509 Certificate' (syntax OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.8).

Is the tech talk presentation online? It sounds like a good idea; please move my name out of source files.: you have my permission.
