Review Comment:
   Should we throw an exception or just return a null value? I think postgis 
return an empty value:
   ```
   postgres=# select  ST_AsText(ST_ClosestPoint(ST_GeomFromText('POINT EMPTY'), 
                                      ST_GeomFromText('LINESTRING (0 0, 1 0, 2 
0, 3 0, 4 0, 5 0)')));
    st_astext
