No way. I don't know of anybody relying on this, but no. Defining
something to not define anything doesn't feel right.

This would make the new value attribute of <available> less useful,
so no (or -1 in Apache speak).

Don't like it too much either. But if this was something that was
widely regarded as useful, I wouldn't veto it.
