It is message-ID 20190718033940.12820-1-p...@nwl.cc and follow-ups,
trying to prevent users from matching against the values we decided to
use for "no data available" situations. This whole attempt feels a bit
futile. Maybe we should introduce something to signal "no value" so that
cmp expression will never match for '==' and always for '!='? Not sure
how to realize this via registers. Also undecided about '<' and '>' ops.

Cheers, Phil
