I have seen a variation on this question from another DFDL user. Their
binary data format was base64-encoded, and they wanted the DFDL parser to
decode to raw bytes and then parse the resulting binary. In other words,
they wanted a new enumeration for the dfdl:representation property.

No. We did consider support for xs:base64Binary but it did not make DFDL
1.0 spec.

Some of the content that we are parsing is Base64 encoded. I know this
may be a bit of a stretch, but does DFDL decode Base64? --
