Yes, the putNull method exists, but is actually not useable because of this bug. Having null in Metadata would be really helpful for me, as I'd like to store default values for fields in the Metadata. And NULL is a very common case as a default value.

Oh @kupferk actually just noticed that the indents in this file are too deep. They should be 2-space. I think it might also be useful to use === and !== as test failures produces more detailed error messages then.

Heh, collided yeah. I thought one commit would end up failing but since they're identical guess it results in an empty commit. No big deal. |
