I have to agree. If an attribute doesn't exist then it should expand to "", that's the behaviour i'm used to too.

For me, it's a major security issue. Silently missing an attribute is bad.

Previously the xlat code wrongly treated zero length expansions as errors, this might of been the original reason for returning a one char expansion.

No, the zero-length expansion issue was a temporary problem during the re-write of the new code. Alan DeKok.
