Definitely prettier, but maybe not so transparent as s1*0.

+1

What about defining a
  null
or
  n
"note name"?  Then we could write
  c4 n\footnote

My preference is "z". There are fewer words that start with "z" than with "n" and it's easy to remember "z" as shorthand for "zero".

Reusing symbols like "<" and ">" for new meanings would turn Lilypond sources into something like Perl.
