Weston, just following up on this, I've gone ahead and made this change for Blob rendering in the Wicket viewer [1].
In order to try this out, you'll need to build Isis from source [2] and optionally [3] if you want to build in Eclipse. You'll then need to change the root pom.xml to use the SNAPSHOT versions, eg line 33~36 in [4] In your code, change the property to be of type applib.value.Blob instead of applib.value.Image, and hopefully it'll work as you wished. Let me know how you get on or if you get stuck.
