 I pass `closed` boolean variable to template, which can have three values
 - None, True, False. I want string `*****` to show only if closed is True.

 {{{
 _{{closed}}_
     {%if closed == True%} ***** {%endif%}
     {%if closed == 'True'%} ***** {%endif%}
 }}}

 I am surprised to see that `*****` output twice when `closed` is None, and
 doesn't show if `closed` boolean is set regardless of its value. I expect
 numerous complaints about that, but couldn't any open reports, so I
 imagine it is 'feature' of template engine, but for me such ugly feature
 is a bug.
