The intention was that a scope can specify a specific fallback image.
That image should be shown when the normal image load returns an error
or an empty image (zero-length ByteArray, or whatever type it is).

This allows the scope to specify a specific fallback image that might be
needed to keep style/theming for the scope. If the scope doesn't provide
a fallback image, or loading of the specified fallback image fails, the
shell can substitute some generic fallback image.

That was the thinking at the time we added this feature.

What's the problem with doc? If it isn't right, I'll fix it.

Title:
  Fallback image not shown when no image specified

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Confirmed
Status in unity-scopes-api package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  In fixing bug #1520631 in unity-scope-click, as the store server will
  start allowing uploads with no icon specified, it was discovered that
  Unity8 is not showing the fallback when we do not include the artwork.
  Instead, it is only shown if we specify invalid artwork. This seems
  wrong, and instead I would think the fallback would be displayed
  whenever no other artwork is provided.
