Bob's expectation is an interesting possibility. But
we have to wait for the discovery of monopoles,
and for experiments revealing their behavior.
I think that speculations on what to expect could
be very useful in a classroom.

I will hazard an answer here:
With magnetic monopoles, E and B would each have a both vector part and a
circulation part.
(No?)
