      There is code in reconciliation (rec_upd_select) that handles tombstones with no timestamp or transaction ID:

      https://github.com/wiredtiger/wiredtiger/blame/develop/src/reconcile/rec_visibility.c#L353

       

      It's been through a few iterations and possibly still isn't quite right. We should review the code and in the least add a big comment explaining why the code needs to be there.
