It however theoretically can break an existing use case where the user correlates the output with a list of refs they externally prepared (e.g. "for-each-ref --format... a b c" shows "A", "", and "C", and the user knows "b" produced ""). I do not know how likely such users complain, though, and if there is nobody who relies on the current behaviour, surely "unconditionally omit" is a very tempting approach to take. Thanks.
