Since protobuf is a binary format, directly editing this in Tsung's XML configuration is not really an option.

I don't really see an easy option here, aport from writing some Erlang code yourself to generate protobuf messages on-the-fly. An alternative for generating the entire protobuf messages could be to base64 encode them and use base64:decode/1 to decode them (also Erlang code, but a lot less complex). This will only work though if your message is static.

You can always just dump the protobuf contents to a file and POST that using the contents_from_file attribute.
