I am storing some lengthy HTML strings in a `binary` field (don't need to search it with `text` and `keyword` has a 32766 character limit). When I click in Kibana to collapse/fold the field, the button turns red and doesn't do anything. This happens if it is indexed as a `text` or `keyword` field as well. I didn't get any errors upon indexing the documents either.

Is there something that I might be doing wrong? Is this a known problem? Should I be reporting an issue on Github?

Yeah please, fill a github ticket with all the requested details about versions and such. Also, if you could share some sample data to reproduce the error that would be fantastic.

Please use the `bug` template following this link:
