You can in the same number of steps. First go to _tree_ at head, then click on "raw" link.

It's true that decision that binary files are automatically redirected to "plain" ("raw") format, so they don't have "html" output caused that there is no link for binary blob at head. But I don't think that changing "raw" link to link to HEAD version, while all other links are to current version is a good idea...
