Bet you could add 'null' if you could do inline java :)

I would like to see CFMX be able to pass null to Java correctly but I suspect it wouldn't be trivial to do (adding 'null' to a language that doesn't have it has a semantic impact right across the language because you have to define in every case what happens in an expression if one of your sub-expressions is null).
