What were the use-cases for making it a type?
Passing it to templates, where the type has to be inferred to something at a point where it is not yet clear what the value will actually be assigned to – without a special type for null, its implicit conversion properties would be lost. There certainly is a bug report about this, in the 5xxx range if I remember correctly.
