I do not recommend this change to using `isBlank()`, because it will return
true if the id is whitespace only, and I believe whitespace is in fact a valid
RethinkDB key.
I'm sorry I was not clear about my concern. In the earlier code using
`isEmpty()`, the if block would be entered if id was null or an empty string.
However, property values are not null, they would be an empty string at least.
So the block appeared to only be entered in practice if id was an empty string.
Given that we knew id was always an empty string, it did not seem necessary to
interpolate the value. It is an empty string, and the result is always the
same.
This appeared to be confirmed by your testBlankId() unit test that
exercised this code and checked its value against `Blank id ''`. It appears to
be further confirmed by the new testNullId() unit test that checks against the
exact same value.
How about just logging it as `Document Identifier cannot be empty` or
similar?
