				 Is all that extra junk necessary? 
 IOW, does the EMU just read up to the null terminator, or is it encoding something in the rest of the BLOB?  I looks like junk, but I guess the EMU may need to know the processor architecture of the person who originally put in the item...
 It seems like
 
 INSERT INTO items (id, raw_data) VALUES (1001, 'Cloth Cap\0');
 
 would work, but I don't know for sure.  If all it needs is the name, though, why not just use a varchar?
