No, of course it would not be an "additional feature" request. It would be an original feature request. "This code doesn't have feature $X" is not the same as "This code is buggy". Failing to implement required features makes the code incomplete. It doesn't mean the code contains any bugs.

Code being bug-free obviously does not mean that there are no features that it leaves unsatisfied.

But the empty program successfully implements the following important features:

  1. Compiles without errors
  2. Validates all required inputs
  3. Reproduces itself
  4. Does not allow any SQL injection attacks
  5. Produces all output in UTF-16
  6. Produces all output in 7-bit ASCII
  7. Produces all output in Big5
  8. Logs detailed error reports if any operation it attempts fails
  9. Exits immediately if used as part of any illegal or immoral activity
  10. All output is automatically translated into the viewer's native language, even if there are multiple simultaneous viewers
  11. All network communication is encrypted so that not only can the NSA never decrypt a single byte of it, they can't even detect it
