This thread seems officially closed and the discussion moved to [1].

Over there, after reading both threads, I am seeing enough agreement that
changing these queries to always print "(none)" (translating the word none)
where today they output null, and thus plan to move forward with the v1
patch on that thread proposing to do just that. Please chime in over there
on this specific option - whether you wish to support or reject it. Should
it be rejected the plan is to have these queries respect the user's
preference in \pset null. Please make it clear if you would rather
maintain the status quo against either of those two options.

Thanks!

David J.
