When to transmit binary



Section 4.1.6 in RFC 2251states:
 
"A field of type AttributeValue takes on as its value either a string encoding of a AttributeValue data type, or an OCTET STRING containing an encoded binary value, depending on whether the "binary" option is present in the companion AttributeDescription to this AttributeValue."
 
We should state, in addition to the case where the binary option is present, that any AttributeValue with a Binary syntax is also encoded as binary. Right?
