While nowhere near unanimous, it seems majority favour using a macro (if only to protect the unwary and document the behaviour).
And of those in favour of macros, using INIT_ALL_ELEMS_ZERO even for bool array is a clear preference.

So, please find attached the updated patch, which now has just 1 macro.
