Review comment:
       As you said earlier, the code in 2.7 is broken.  So we should't be going 
based off of that. The correct code in 2.6 does not special-case the empty 
string.
   
   However, it occurs to me that the behavior is the same whether we special 
case the empty string or not. Since every string contains the empty string, 
specifying the empty string will have the same effect as specifying null. This 
is a good example of a case where a field shouldn't have been nullable.
   
   Anyway, can you take out the special case? It seems likely to create 
confusion.
