For properties, yes, but the idea it stems from is type-hints. Given
the following type-hint, passing a null is not allowed:
class Foo {
function bar(Bar $bar) {}
}
Whereas in the following NULL is allowed:
class Foo {
function bar(Bar $bar = NULL) {}
}
This is what I mean by the PHP convention for allowing NULL.
