You could add those, yes, but you don't need to.
no_transmition would work relative to transparent objects that don't have an 
ior. You don't see the object through a transparent object, but will see it 
through one with an ior.
no_refraction would work for those that do have an ior. You see that through a 
transparent object but not if that object have any ior different than 1.

This is fixed in beta 26 (better late than never ;)
