Description
Since v1.30, we can use the `ex:` intent appearances on fields of binary types. "If the field has a binary type, Collect will use the ClipData contents."
https://github.com/getodk/collect/issues/4214
Similar to the section on binary files at https://docs.getodk.org/launch-apps-from-collect/#external-apps-to-populate-multiple-fields
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the binary-files section in the linked external-apps documentation and review issue #4214 for the single-intent behavior. Add documentation explaining how a binary field receives ClipData from one intent widget, and consider the work done when the behavior and relevant usage are clear to readers.
