You are completely right. I would rather have a specific bug than a general guideline (even if it is correct) but I will keep this bug report as wishlist to serve as a reminder.

In python empty vars are usually false, so if someones passes an empty var the function will create a new one, both creating more objects than it needs to and making it way harder to test openerp code. Changing it to if <variable> is None is both more semantically correct and will make the problem go away.
