[Petal] attributes question

There are times when people need to produce a tag like tag="". I think there
are some tags in HTML that should never contain a value, for example the
selected tag in
<option name="aaa" value="bbb" selected>
And even if they're not common, I'm sure there must be other XML vocabularies
that have valueless tags, so this is important.
We don't need a new kind of nothing, the problem is that Petal treats "" and
undef the same. I think "" should just be "" so
<option value="aaa" petal:attributes="selected sel" />
should give
<option value="aaa" selected="" />
when $hash->{sel} is "" and
<option value="aaa" />
when $hash->{sel} is undef
