Comment (by get_dave):

 Yes this does seem a little unusual. When I implemented this I was
 thinking that we needed some way to communicate to the client that the
 remote URL was inaccessible.

 Perhaps instead we return a "success" code such as `204` to indicate the
 lack of content.

 Be aware that any change here will need to be accompanied by changes to
 the handler code in Gutenberg Core because we'll need to add a special
 case for the `204` and reflect that in the UI as required.
