We don't do that (yet), and the old Forth-94 TC has not been active
for a long time, so there is little point.  However, everyone but you
agrees that an implementation that answers "unknown" to all queries is
conforming (although useless), so do you really need an official
answer?

You could write a proposal (RfD) for a clearer specification, however.
I don't think it's worth the effort, though.
