I think if you wrap the byte[] into an object and implement equals and
hashcode methods, you may be able to do this. There will be the overhead of
extra object, but conceptually it should work unless I am missing
something.

Makes sense – I suspect what you suggested should work.
However, I think the overhead between this and using `String` would be similar
enough to warrant just using `String`.

Be careful shoving arbitrary binary data into a string, invalid utf
characters can cause significant computational overhead in my experience.
