Hi Wesley, Thanks for the heads up. Any reason an empty-String cannot be used for a Link? I was coding defensively by making all Link object default to an empty String (since in order to do anything with them I need to constantly be calling the "getValue()" function on the Link). Now, I have to return "null" when using an empty link, so I have to always be checking if the Link I'm using is null or not (just makes for messier code).
Is there some good reason the datastore doesn't support empty-String Link objects, or should I file an enhancement request for this?
