Well, no matter what you need to say what the encoding is.
Since AFAIK a string in JavaScript uses at least a short, should we
send those shorts as is? Then what Byte order? Network Byte order
(MSB)? or Intel (LSB)?
I suspect you intend this to either send just the low 8bits of
a UTF16 encoded String (good for binary data), or send a UTF8 encoded
string (good for text). However, you _must_ specify this.
I would consider this a full blown issue for SVG 1.2!
