Are objects time-dependent if value is None? #744

          Isn't this a bit dangerous? Say I check if it's time-dependent before assigning it a value by mistake, I may think it's not time-dpeendent but then it becomes time dependent if the value is say a function of time.

Should we raise an error instead?
