Just as we'd have to do with NilClass#==, FalseClass#== would be
necessary:
class FalseClass
def ==(other)
if other.kind_of?(FalseClass)
true
else
false
end
end
end
Or something like that. It's not pretty, but I think that there's
few edge cases around this particular concept which would have to be
dealt with, and NilClass#== and FalseClass#== should take care of
most of them. I think. (The fact that most classes seem to get their
#== from Comparable helps.)

I don't see why it's a bad idea. It does present a few surprises to
people who aren't used to a language distinguishing between 0 and
NULL, but it's intimately familiar to people who do anything with
SQL databases. Literally, when I set colval = NULL in a database, I
am setting it to an 'unset' value, which means that I can't possibly
trust anything about that value except the fact that it's unset.
It's rather like doing the following in C (dangerous and stupid):
int *p, *c;
if (*p == *c)
puts("Miracle!");
We haven't initialised the pointers p & c, so we're picking up
whatever values are there. The likelihood of these values actually
matching is minimal. In C, NULL is simply 0, which represents its
*own* danger. I think that Ruby has a great step toward what I
consider Very Good NULL value handling (the more explicitly you
handle unset values, the better, as far as I'm concerned), but I
think that this would actually make it even better (that is, more
explicit).
If something isn't a "real" value -- much like NaN isn't a real
value but a concept, the same with nil, why should testing that
imaginary value against itself result in equality? By definition,
these 'values' aren't actually values, but concepts.
Just my .02 Canadian,
