Querying field such as description

I am wondering how I would query on description showing all work items in which the descriptions are empty? Can this be done?

Unfortunately, the current version does not support anything except full-text search on the long text fields. One of the reasons is that 'empty' is not as obvious for multi-line and HTML fields. It can have just one end-of-line character, or several empty lines, for example. And HTML can be quite complex inside, without anything visible.
