Michael Lasevich commented on GROOVY-9848:
------------------------------------------

Thanks for opening the issue.

It seemed logical for me that membership operator (in) would be true if key was 
in the map regardless of the value, but then I hit a bug where certain values 
would return false for `in`, even though the key was present (Thankfully unit 
test picked it up). Took me a whole day to realize that is not what `in` does. 
I get that for those who understand this behavior this may be a potentially 
breaking change, but I will bet this is a bug present in a lot of people's 
Groovy code...
