This works fine for location, because empty string is available to
represent the deletion of the location (as opposed to deletion of the
modification of the attribute).

Consider a different scenario where the master event has a reminder 15
minutes before the meeting.  There's no longer any syntax to describe
"don't have a reminder for this occurrence", because the null value is
used to represent deletion of a modification.

Sincerely,
Jeffrey
