mysql no longer terminates data value display when it encounters a NUL
byte. Instead, it displays NUL bytes as spaces. (Bug #16859)

Everyone here realizes that this is a mysql CLIENT bug, not server side.
i.e. if you're writing an application and request that binary text
string, you'll get it with nuls in it, just like you put in.
Now, I'm not sure that turning nulls into spaces is the best way to
handle this in the client. In fact, I'm sure it's not. But this is not
a server bug, it's a client bug.
I was not sure about MySQL, thank you for your explaination.
This ensures me that even MySQL server handles NUL-bytes properly
regardless to client problems.
