- Raw blobs (no codec) now show "bytes" - Raw json (no codec) shows "json" - Codec fields show "<codec_name>" (e.g., <blob>, <hash>, <object>) - HTML output properly escapes angle brackets for browser display - Improves clarity when viewing table contents Example output: *id raw_blob blob_data json_data 1 bytes <blob> json Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Why do we expect attr to be None? Can it ever be None? If it can, perhaps this should raise an error instead of returning bytes

Good catch! You're right - attr should never be None here since field_name always comes from heading.names. The defensive check was silently hiding potential bugs.
I've updated the code in PR #1331 (which now includes this PR) to raise an error instead:
if attr is None:
raise DataJointError(f"Field '{field_name}' not found in heading")This way any unexpected state will surface immediately rather than returning a misleading "bytes" placeholder.
