When there is no value, nothing is exported. This is the correct counterpart for r.in.xyz where you get NULLs for cells without any input XY(Z). I agree with Moritz. Adding a flag to export NULLs looks like the best way. It doesn't break API nor expectations. NULLs simply not being there seems like a better default here.
