That's exactly what does happen from the perspective of the front end: it
takes the null string and prints it, i.e., nothing.
I'm not sure what would be worthwhile to say and I never considered this
situation when writing the front end for Emacs; it just came out right.
Perhaps, however, I've just got used to the status quo, and you could ask
others (Ericsson?) if they find this behaviour surprising.

Committed. Thanks.
