NPE when trying to report an exception involving an instance that returns null 
for toString()
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: TAPESTRY-2570
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-2570
             Project: Tapestry
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Framework
    Affects Versions: 4.1.5
            Reporter: Patrick Moore
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 4.1.6




Code from ExceptionAnaylzer:
(line 178)            stringValue = value.toString().trim();

            if (stringValue.length() == 0)
                continue;

------------------------
value.toString() returns null. Seems somewhat useless code.....

I don't understand why the stringValue.length is being checked for it being an 
empty string because then stringValue is not used. And no comments to help :-(
