A bit like this (still open) issue?

;)

Mind you I was sure there was some discussion in dev-lilypond a few 
years ago about /null -  whether to keep it or change it or something 
(!?) - but I am having a hard time finding it in the archives (I may be 
mis-remembering but there was some big(ish) patch around /null and 
spacing and there was a similar discussion about renaming it with regard 
to related 'null-ish' tricks s1*0 and <>

I'll keep hunting to see if I can find it (in case it saves some time 
re-hashing old ground).
