IMHO, being binary files is not a reason good enough to be added to that
list.
That is precisely the reason most of them are in the list--because
Most of the time, people don't want to edit binary files. This is a
convenience feature to help you get the source file and just the
source file.
When you want to edit the binary file, that is not hard. You just
type the last part of the name by hand.
