I'm kind of leaning to removing the restriction that nulls must be
strongly typed. Compared to the current workarounds the idea that a
(very) few cases won't work isn't that bad. What I recall "? IS NULL"
won't work and "func(?)" could be ambiguous, but that doesn't stop you
from specifying a type for these cases. For non-null values we need the
strong typing to ensure that we don't send data in a different format than
the server expects, but this is not an issue with nulls.
