the problem is: you'll get this four byte sequence '\000' _instead_

Your client library should take care of escaping and de-escaping.
We both agree as you see.
Then i am asking:
WHY should a client take care of de-escaping ? Why not to get his data
unchanged ?
If i forced to de-escape when using bytea then i may use text with the
same escaping/de-escaping AS WELL.
