If you imagine the format being built by scripts (we are talking
about plumbing feature --format here), I think you will realize that
it perfectly makes sense to allow them to say "%(atom:$modifiation)"
without having to worry about a special case where $modification
happened to end up being empty.  So no, I do not agree with your
statement at all.
