I think the canonical way to represent a null byte (or, in this case, a
null bit septet within a byte) with this notation is ^@.  And that is in

Readline uses a different notation, so the null byte would be represented
as \C-@. But you can't be sticking NULs into the middle of a translated
key binding no matter what.
