vis_miss do not render empty lists as missing values within list columns

[cregouby]

Missing values in list columns are not shown missing in vis_miss

ReprEx

in the example dataset starwars, two list columns vehicles and starship contains a lot of missing values. Those missing values can be identified as character vectors of length 0 as follow This is very misleading in the vis_miss output visualization as it let you think those columns are complete.

library(dplyr, warn.conflicts = FALSE)
data("starwars")
head(starwars %>% select(vehicles, starships))
#> # A tibble: 6 × 2
#>   vehicles  starships
#>   <list>    <list>   
#> 1 <chr [2]> <chr [2]>
#> 2 <chr [0]> <chr [0]>
#> 3 <chr [0]> <chr [0]>
#> 4 <chr [0]> <chr [1]>
#> 5 <chr [1]> <chr [0]>
#> 6 <chr [0]> <chr [0]>
