    Log Message:
    Throw fewer exceptions when passed null or undefined as parameters

    Some scripts (e.g. addfiles.js) depend on the previous (undocumented) behavior
    for some methods, e.g. lfexpand(undefined) would return undefined.

    So for global functions that are expected to return a modified version of the
    value passed (usually a string), return null or undefined when passed null or
    undefined. Backward compatibility is more important than consistency in this
    case. :-(
