Hey Tom, Patch looks solid (basically the same as the isset logic with OR instead of AND). I think it's fairly sane to have this feature because it compliments isset functionality (although I dislike "empty" personally - consistency is nice) No RFC would be complete without a complaint about naming. "empty_expressions" ... I'll give you an empty expression! But overall +1 on functionality and patch. Cheers! Leigh.
