[LiveComponent] data-action="live#update" does not accept null values

[nicodemuz]

Is there a way to send a NULL value with data-action="live#update"?

I have tried the following:

<a href="javascript:void(0);" data-model="categoryId" data-value="" data-action="live#update">All categories</a>
<a href="javascript:void(0);" data-model="categoryId" data-value="NULL" data-action="live#update">All categories</a>
<a href="javascript:void(0);" data-model="categoryId" data-value="~" data-action="live#update">All categories</a>

Probably data-value="null" should be the correct syntax or data-value (with no ""). I kind of think the 2nd is better, but we also need a syntax that allows setting true/false values.

Or perhaps this should be a purposeful limitation and we document to use a LiveAction instead (which, indeed, is the work-around that I know @nicodemuz found and used).

Hey, thanks for your report! There has not been a lot of activity here for a while. Is this bug still relevant? Have you managed to find a workaround?
