It seems rather messy to delete the node and then re-create it all

start
publishing again 20 minutes later or whatever. So why delete the
node
(along with all its subscriptions) only to re-create it so soon?
Could we not define some way of positively indicating a lack of
information?
Say, a <mu/> element, which could either go inside a <tune/>, or
replace it entirely within the node. (I'm here using "mu" as an
acknowledgement of the question but a refusal to answer it, serious
Japanese/Zen people can laugh at my ineptitude in using the word
"without").
