Description

When using a null value on a radio button, or a value the gets ValueEncoded to null, the value gets submitted to the server as "on". The value should come back null, or at least as an empty String. I have no idea how "on" is getting submitted instead of the correct value.

To test:
1) Create radio group with a few radio components in it.
2) Make one of these radio buttons have value="null".
3) Submit form and watch as you get the String "on" returned instead of null.
