I'd say:

{
     "name" => "Profile A",
     "subsystem" => {
         "jmx" => undefined,
         "web" => undefined
     }
}

That looks less like there's nothing there, and more like it just hasn't 
been grabbed yet.  Users can still set the result on the node, the same 
as if they got {} back.  The difference is, {} could actually *be* the 
content so you can't tell if you have gotten the content but it was 
empty, or you haven't gotten the content yet.
