Details
Problem:
There seems to be no way of instantiating nsIBinaryStreams from
javascript though the interface should be scriptable in itself.
Components.classes contains no entry for this interface.
I was asked to file this bug after a discussion on #mozilla where
the general opinion was that this was just an oversight.
My original problem was that I couldn't find any way to read/write
binary files from javascript. nsIScriptableInputStream doesn't seem
to work with binary files (as also noted in bug 128215).

reporter: how badly do you need this bug fixed?
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
Target Milestone: --- → Future
Not that badly really since in my case I can use file
upload instead to get the job done.
But I can imagine that a lot of XUL programmers might be
somewhat dissapointed if there is no way one can read/write
binary files from javascript, that really limits the
possibilities for XUL projects a lot. Is there really no
workaround?

This has been fixed since 2003-03-13. See bug 170585, which fixed it. I suggest this is a dup of bug 170585.
