Looks good to me, except that I think I agree with Gwern that an empty maintainer field is better than a distinguished value like "none".
Is that still your view?
We can always make the web page note that the package has no maintainer.
If on the other hand everyone thinks "none" is a good idea then we should make hackage upload enforce that the maintainer field is not empty.
The library already warns about it; all that would be needed is to adjust the severity level.
