If that's the case, should there at least be an empty repo that makes dnf happy until there's time there's actual content to be added there?

I thought it shipped disabled by default, and you explicitly had to enable if you wanted packages before the next point release was fully released. 
It's true that we ship this with enabled=0 by default, but it's also true that it would be correct and friendly to include empty repodata on the mirrors.

We plan to do the latter with the next batch of updates. Stay tuned!
Yes I enabled it manually to test all of the shipped repo files included for something I was working on and discovered that it was missing for 8. I already saw the bug open about the same issue happening with the debuginfo repo so I'll wait for both of those :)

Thanks!
