[Anton van Straaten]

>         blobs has database precedent (binary large object)
>             but ugly, undignified, and unsuggestive
>         possible alternative names for u8vector-ref:
>             bytes-ref
>             binary-vector-ref
>             bvector-ref
>             bv-ref

Some other names for the datatype were mentioned: octet-vector, 
byte-vector, bytes, binary, bit-bucket.
