Hi Hans,

Is it true that \pdfmapline{} acts like \pdfmapfile{} ?
yes. The timing of both commands is the same, and the argument string for \pdfmapline is handled nearly like a filename, only that it later is scanned as if coming from a nameless mapfile with a single mapline only. Both commands come also with similarly functioning qualifiers +-=. I thought that would help for consistency.
isn't the intended behaviour:
\pdfmapline{} -> ignore \pdfmapfile{} -> resets all map file entries
Not for me, maybe i have misunderstood you. Sure it's easy to change that an empty \pdfmapline{} would just be ignored. You prefer this?
yes, although it does not really matter when it's known behaviour; it's just that i ran into a situation where the mapline was empty and was puzzled about errors [\pdfresetmaplist would be even better combined with ignored empty cases, but it's too late for that now]
