If it is implemented in the server I would implement it.
However, it isn't implemented in the server and so
there's no recommended way to store 0s in strings now.
Even if 0s are stored in strings accidentally like your
example shows, there are few code which take them into
account and they would be lost before long. As for me
I've never minded 0s in strings in the backend coding.

I don't think your request is unreasonable but what
you should request the change first seems from the
backend side.
