It's a little odd to have a 'protocol' where the default behavior indicated by the absence of the header cannot be explicitly signaled in the header.  Generally, it's possible to say "I want default behavior" explicitly.  It's odd enough to notice, but not (IMHO) serious enough to add a value (-1?) to say "whatever, default behavior, please".
