This is fair enough at the model level, but having it in usermodel is

Alas not quite. Consider the case:
1.2 "String" (blank) (null) 4.2
If you wanted to set all of those cells to hold the value 42.0, you'd do:
row.getCell(0).setCellValue(42.0)
row.getCell(1).setCellValue(42.0)
row.getCell(2).setCellValue(42.0)
row.createCell(3).setCellValue(42.0)
row.getCell(4).setCellValue(42.0)
So a blank cell really is different from a null cell, as you can just
write straight into a blank cell, while a null cell needs to be created
first
I'll tweak the javadocs of the iterators to make it clearer about null
cells, just as soon as svn comes back up...
