An example of a good type of class which doesnt need any values (just functions) is an object which
is a string processor of some kind.
This way you can do things like
$sqlString .= $mySearchBox->getQueryFragment(new MyStringProcessor());
... which avoids the need to use callbacks or to create many extended versions of MySearchBox.
So, "empty" objects are both legal, and very useful.
