stephen mallette updated TINKERPOP-2235:
----------------------------------------
    Description: 
Introduce a Gremlin specific {{Null}} object to better allow for conveying the notion of "null" in traversals allowing things like:

{code}
gremlin> g.inject(Null.instance())
==> null
gremlin> g.V(1).property("x", 1).property("y", Null.instance()).property("z", 2))  
==> v[1]
{code}

See the linked DISCUSS thread for more information.
