Kindly disregard this post.

MySQL Workbench detects the Name field as a BLOB type, and so, promptly 
displays this as if I wanted to look at hex / binary data.

When searching from the CLI, the filenames are readily apparent.

Incidentally, from the make_mysql_tables:

--Note, we use BLOB rather than TEXT because in MySQL,
--BLOBs are identical to TEXT except that BLOB is case
--Sensitive in sorts, which is what we want, and TEXT
--Is case insensitive.

Having read this, and your comment about Postgres, I decided to do the query 
directly in the CLI, which revealed this was a Workbench display issue not a 
Bacula issue.

Really. The table Filename, for example, has two columns:
FilenameId INT(10)
Name BLOB

Really? On postgres,
select p.path from path p join file f on f.pathid=p.pathid join filename n on 
n.filenameid=f.filenameid where n.name='foo.dat';
