New submission from Larry Hastings:
I was staring at Clinic tonight and a thought came to me. We could express
"nullable=True" as "types='NoneType'". For example, the converter for 'Z'
could change from
Py_UNICODE(nullable=True)
to
Py_UNICODE(types="str NoneType")
There Should Be Only One Way To Do It. Should we get rid of "nullable=True"
and use types=NoneType instead?
FWIW it's pretty arbitrary either way; the arguments to the converter are just
telling the converter how to generate the code. I don't think it would make
any difference in the converter's code--either way is fine.
