I had a problem with empty action strings (action="") when visitors were
using some old version of AOL with who-knows-what browser embedded in it.

I was getting all ready to say that Safari doesn't like these empty
action attributes, but I just tested it and it's fine. I swear I've
seen brokenness on this, but maybe it was just a bug that got patched.

Which sucks, because I used to use empty actions. Well, back to it I guess.
