Kelvin Lawrence updated TINKERPOP-3083:
---------------------------------------
Description:
There are many use cases where it is helpful to be able to split an entire
string into an array of characters. In other query languages, passing in a null
string ('') as the parameter achieves this. I believe the Gremlin step should
behave the same way. For example
Current behavior
{code:java}
g.inject('Hello').split('')
['Hello']{code}
Proposed new behavior
{code:java}
g.inject('Hello').split('')
['H','e','l','l','o']{code}
