Andy Seaborne commented on JENA-261:
------------------------------------
The SERVICE SILENT is matching and returning a single of no variables.
The fact it "matches" by seeing a failure and returning an empty row is not
visible to UNION. All UNION sees is rows returned.
Don't confuse SERVICE SILENT seeing a a failure and converting it to a result
(that is, it is "matching" in the overall sense) and the branches of the UNION
not matchign (returning zero rows).

> in nextStage() when a RuntimeException is caught and the 'silent' parameter
> has been set, a QueryIterSingleton is created. This results in an empty
> solution being returned. I think the proper action would be to return a
> QueryIterNullIterator so that the empty result is not returned.
