CPE GUI and CDE do not distinguish empty array from null
--------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: UIMA-107
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-107
             Project: UIMA
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Eclipse plugins, Tools
            Reporter: Adam Lally
            Priority: Minor


If editing a component descriptor by hand, a multi-valued parameter can either 
be set to an empty array or to null.  However, the CDE and the CPE GUI both 
present a list widget for these parameters, which does not provide any way to 
distinguish between the two.

An empty array is specified in the descriptor by:
<nameValuePair>
  <name>paramName</name>
  <value>
    <array></array>
  </value>
</nameValuePair>

Whereas a null is indicated by not specifying including a <nameValuePair> 
element for the parameter at all.
