Empty values could still be expressed using the content attribute, so
the desire to express triples containing the empty string as their
object is not necessarily a reason not to proceed with this.

A bigger concern would be the backwards compatibility issue. It's in
the Working Group's remit to remain backwards compatible with RDFa 1.0
documents (with an exception for XML literals).
