13  * MMObjectNodes can contain Binary data. These BYTE fields can be
14  * retrieved, byt the node does not store them internally - nodes are cached, and
15  * caching large amounts of binary data is bad for performance.
16  * However, some classes keep a separate cache for binaries (i.e. Images).
17  * This class is meant to hold byte arrays while simultaneously keep data as to
18  * which object it is part of. This allows for caching and passing binary values
19  * between functions without loosing track of which image it is part of.
