+1, return empty string for the one arg and add the two arg variant. The j.u.Properties.getProperty(String, String) could use it first. Just curious, what does project jigsaw think of j.u.Objects?

I'm preparing the first round of java.util.Objects with the single-argument static toString method return "null" for null for final review. I'll send out a few follow-up emails, including one for additional toStrings methods. I'm sympathetic to the two-argument toString method with a default.

Project Jigsaw is about modularity so I don't see what connection there is between Jigsaw and j.u.Objects.
