So it's about boolean fields and form serialization. Got it.
No, nothing broke for me, I was just wondering why output the attribute at
all. In HTML, foo="false" means that foo is true. Much more correct for
attribute specified in Ruby as { :foo => false } is to produce no output at
all, and that we put some special-casing to form helpers like `hidden_field`
to convert booleans to strings prior to sending these attributes to common
tag helpers.
