I am setting this issue to 'worksforme' for the following reason.

First - the action described is the query designer functioning as designed.
Second - the design does follow proper SQL standards.

In the query designer, in the criteria text box you can enter the strings "IS 
NULL" or "IS EMPTY" to return all records where the field's value is NULL.

You can also enter just the strings "EMPTY" or "NULL" in which case the query 
parser generates correct SQL of "Column" = NULL.

The SQL 92 standard states 'if one of the operands is NULL, the result of the 
comparison is "UNKNOWN".'. In other words the result set would be zero records, 
which is exactly what Base returns. Not often what you actually wanted, but it 
is valid SQL none the less.
