The fact that the top level directory was hidden was because Bacula
created it -- i.e. it was not there before, or you did not select to
restore the directory.  If you create the directory prior to doing a
restore or you restore the directory you won't have the problem.  I
consider this is or was a bug.  I believe that it is corrected in the
latest 7.0.5 binaries.

Best regards,

Kern
