Agreed, this is not an every-day occurrence.
In my case, it is because log files I receive from customers sometimes
have a huge number of NUL bytes preceding the readable content. This
leading, extremely-long line gets in the way of reasonable
responsiveness.
I also confess that I have not been keeping up with the current trends
in Emacs development. Back when I started using EMACS [sic], it was
an excellent binary editor. Apparently this is not a current
requirement, because it clearly is no longer useful for same. Side
question: is there a GNU tool designed for editing binary files?
