a filesystem index at each backup (this wouldn't be difficult, but would be overkill in 90% of sites)

I have no idea of a percentage, but I would think that the percentage of users that can benefit from point in time is more than 10%. Any ISP (specially anyone using Maildir directory) needs this feature.
For our site (~20TiB of astronomical and space probe data), the practical alternatives to Bacula are commercial solutions with pricetags starting somewhat past $10,000 and going upwards from there.

Tivoly Storage Manager is probably around or under 10K.
As it is, Bacula is winning many converts from lesser-specified commercial offerings


I think Bacula has great potential. Personally I plan to see how I can help the project on weekends (the only real spare time I have).
