[postgis-devel] ST_AsBinary(geography) ?

[Sandro Santilli]

While looking at qgis sources it stroke me that
geography and geometry are threated differently:

  ST_AsBinary(<geometry>, <endian_spec>) and
  ST_AsBinary(<geography>)

So went looking and found ST_AsBinary(<geography>, <endian_spec>) 
doesn't exist. Is there any reason why ST_AsBinary(<geography>)
doesn't implicitly cast geography to geometry ?

In other words: is there a special WKB for geography ?
