> Drill has a function {{binary_string()}}, which converts a UTF8 encoded, [C style HEX escaped strings|http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/escape], of the form "\Xnn" into a {{VARYBINARY}} type.
> This JIRA propose to add a counter function for converting a {{VARYBINARY}} type into a {{VARCHAR}} type encoded with the same scheme.
