Lack of good binary support for transfer, internal use, and internal
storage is a huge killer for JS, IMHO.
Perhaps. However, I'm having a very difficult time getting over my amusement at being told that efficient data types for binary data are critically important on a list devoted to XML.
"Laugh while you can ... " :)
Yes I agree its amusing, but in the mobile space (which is really yesterdays desktop space ... and tomorrows 'your space' ) getting huge amounts of XML to devices is seriously painful using text protocols.
Seriously scratching head here. So why on earth would you use XML? Whatever happened to ASN.1?
