   We're marking this PR as stale due to lack of updates in the past few months. If after another couple of weeks the stale label has not been removed this PR will be closed. This stale marker and eventual auto close does not indicate a judgement of the PR just lack of reviewer bandwidth and helps us keep the PR queue more manageable.  If you would like this PR re-opened you can do so and a committer can remove the stale tag.  Or you can open a new PR.  Try to help review other PRs to increase PR review bandwidth which in turn helps yours.

   > I don't see the usefulness of such a method and I am not sure it is worth the big code change, sorry
   
   Hello Marco! Thanks for your time!
   
   In the past I've been use NiFi for some data trasformations and, sometime, some automatical conversions (for example from JSON -> Avro) wasn't compatible with the "empty value filosofy" used inside NiFi. For example: When I have an empty value: what is it? Is it a string? is a number? It could be a "null" values?
   
   This change skips this misunderstanding enabling the user to use programmatically NULL value (inside of expression language)
   
   if you think it's better, I can create an article to expose that!
   
   Kind regards

   I think you can maybe send an email in the community list to check whether this is a feature many people need and in case of a favorable result we can go ahead with the PR. Thanks.

   Hello @Fabryprog, 
   Whatever the outcome of the discussion with the community, I would undersline that you are not actually interested in the null value itself (if I understood correctly) but rather in propagating the type a field which is null for a specific in-transit object
