One possible value we could use is about:blank There is an I-D kicking around somewhere that defines the about scheme. The author might be amenable to allowing about:blank to be used here (e.g., as a "placeholder" URI when no other URI is appropriate). Another possibility is to use something like about:noreferrer and define about:noreferrer to return a resource that describes what the value means in the Referer header (e.g., the relevant requirements from HTTPbis).
