hmmm - i'm not sure why `ElementHelper.areEqual(Property, Object)` needs to
throw exceptions for null situations. i'm not so sure that's really how it
should work. In studying some of the usage, I don't see where that's really
valuable logic. I think the better fix is to just to make
`ElementHelper.areEqual(Property, Object)` handle nulls properly like the other
`areEqual()` methods. @okram any problems taking that approach?
