Setting an attribute to `undef`, or leaving it out entirely, are equivalent, and are generally the "unknown" rather than "absent" state for a resource in our model.

I would expect either of these options to *remove* the comment, and it only to be present if it is specified in the `host` resource. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
