empty() and null are very different.  empty() will be true for a blank
string, zero, or an empty array.  In this particular case you have a
HABTM relationship, and when saving a HABTM all existing connections
are destroyed, and replaced with those passed.

So, if $this->data['Tag']['Tag'] is empty, it may be an empty array,
and would delete all the HABTM joins.  Replacing this with null will
mean the existing joins are not affected.

But the other parts - I'm not sure either.  There must be some similar
issue with the Tag being set to an empty, but not null value.
