Interesting. How could you detect NULL though? There is no special string which
could not also be a valid string, unless you prevent valid strings of a certain
name (e.g. 'XXXXXXXXNULL' or something) from being serialized. Or to prevent
NULL from being serialized, which would be more to the point.

Practically speaking, I haven't run into this. Unless you can suggest a way of
fixing this (perhaps a different type), I'd be ok living with a WONTFIX :)
