Ouch, that was vague.... Sorry, not trying to fearmonger here.

Here is the reference, look for the important encoding note.  Seems obvious in

Just be careful if you are using filterchain/filterreplace on binary files.  
Encoding issues can end up transcoding some bytes in binary files.  Much has 
been written on this topic and I would pay close attention.
