(It would, however, be possible to include a text-encoded transformation of
a binary file as a CDATA marked section, using something like UUencode with

I agree. And, five years from now we might have many other things improved
(X..., ...). And we hope ebXML will be everywhere.

Absolutely. Many times implementers give solutions (how) without justifing
it (why).
