Dima,
I know, Null<> has a number of shortcomings. But rather than trying to
patch it, I'd replace it with boost::optional<> instead.
The problem is, we're already late for the 1.0 train. Over the next
releases, I'll try to replace it in a few places where it doesn't break
backward compatibility. For the other places, I guess we'll wait for
the next overhaul (2.0, probably in a few years.) The shortcomings are
not that bad anyway.
Thoughts?
Luigi
