Another pre-existing namespace issue

http://bugs.python.org/issue28734

When positional nargs='?' or '*', the default (or []) overwrites the namespace 
value.  That's because the posiitonals are always 'seen' (by an empty string), 
and `get_values` has special handling.  This action interacts with 
`take_action` and the handling of mutually_exclusive_groups.
