Lovely, thanks.

To me, "keep the existing behavior as much as possible" isn't comforting
because it doesn't tell me *which* existing behavior.  Fortunately the patch
itself is comforting: it makes us treat "" the same way as unset, which is
exactly what the RFC requires.

So I'm happy with this version.  Thanks for your patient work.
