Hi,

For some toughts about binary field handling of phpMyAdmin see: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1611770&gro...

This patch implements a $cfg['ProtectBinary'] = 'hex' setting that makes phpMyAdmin handle BINARY and BLOB fields in hex.

Note that I recommend to use the $GLOBALS['cfg']['ProtectBinary'] === 'hex' code paths in common.lib.php anyway instead of using $GLOBALS['cfg']['ProtectBinary'] === 'hex'.

If you like this patch please apply it to the SVN otherwise comments are welcome.
