Sorry, I didn't follow closely the previous discussions. I'm not sure
"gone" is right either, since the user may just have configured an
upstream that does not exist and never existed. Perhaps "absent" would
be better.

Just a thought, shouldn't block the patch.

Thank you for following this, and offering better statements. I will
make another reroll after the end of my business trip this week.
