Thank you for your quick response.
Again my goal is to display nothing!
I looked over the implementation of the DbBaseHandlerTag.getNullFieldValue() and noticed that the method will ignore an empty string passed as a parameter. This is due to a call to Util.isNull() which, in addition to checking for null, makes a trim().length() != 0. It is my opinion that I should be allowed to input an empty string in this particular context. What do you think?

Yes, all output and input use the same methods now.

textArea has this feature too - now. I changed the tld file in the
repository.
