e:cell doesn't support null values
----------------------------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-3830
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-3830
             Project: Seam
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Excel
            Reporter: Eric Jung
         Attachments: JXLHelper.java.diff

If the value of an e:cell is null , an exception is thrown due to a lack of null checks in JXLHelper.createCell(). It would be better if the cell value was empty in the case of nulls, just like JSF's and Facelets' <h:outputText value="#{aNull}"/> outputsan empty string when encountering nulls.

Workaround described below, but it gets very tedious adding null checks for hundreds of cells across multiple worksheets.
