HBase Browser binary row keys support?

Maybe i miss something but i can’t filter table view by my binary row keys which consist of an integer concatenated with reverse timestamp (day and year only as shorts). For example, in hbase shell column key looks like \x00\x00\x01\x09x!{` so how do i put this value correctly in the search box? If it’s not supported then i think it must be added…

In case it would help, it should be fine to provide a customed JsonResponse like BinJsonResponse https://github.com/cloudera/hue/blob/master/desktop/core/src/desktop/lib/django_util.py#L455 that has a different encoder=DjangoJSONEncoder

and then change it for the HBase app: https://github.com/cloudera/hue/blob/master/apps/hbase/src/hbase/views.py#L29

or change it to

JsonResponse(data={…}, encoder=BinDjangoJSONEncoder…)

subclassing with different default might be a bit simpler.

And adding the above test could live in https://github.com/cloudera/hue/blob/master/desktop/core/src/desktop/lib/django_util_test.py

and should run with something like: ./build/env/bin/hue test specific desktop.lib.django_util_test:TestDjangoUtil.bin_…_test
