Input value not rendering when value is a an empty string

[chrisabrams]

If there is an input such as:

<input id="foo" value="#{inputValue}" />

If the reducer returns

{inputValue: 'foo'}

then the input correctly renders with 'foo' as the value.

However, if the reducer returns

{inputValue: ''}

then the input will display '#{inputValue}' as the value, as if it was just skipped to be rendered all together.

TLDR: input values should be able to receive blank strings (because sometimes we don't know if we want to display a blank input or an input with a value)

Do you think this is at all related to google/incremental-dom#239

Hmm that could be causing it. It is interesting that you are actually getting #{inputValue} as the value. That means the template string is being interpolated...

Yep, I dunno what's going on :O
