The current implementation of byte-valued attributes uses a custom wrapper internally to provide equality and comparator semantics over java native byte arrays. This wrapper is transparently added to any byte-type values, but we currently do not provide any methods for reading the data back out of this object -- it's simply a deftype.
We need to explore alternative implementations for supporting byte type attributes.
