I'm using Wicket v1.3.4. I would like to create a kind of TextField that converts a null model value to a custom string rather than an empty string. Unfortunately, the converter is not run when the model object is null, and it looks like Component.getModelObjectAsString(...) is hard-coded to return "" when the model is null.
Is there some way I can overcome this without modifying the Wicket source? Thanks, Nate Roe
