    Description

      The BINARY type is currently not supported inside complex types and a cross-component decision is probably needed to support it (see IMPALA-11491). We would like to enable EXPAND_COMPLEX_TYPES for Iceberg metadata tables (IMPALA-12612), which requires that queries with BINARY inside complex types don't fail. Enabling EXPAND_COMPLEX_TYPES is a more prioritised issue than IMPALA-11491, so we should come up with a temporary solution, e.g. NULLing BINARY values in complex types and logging a warning, or setting these BINARY values to a warning string.
