[TYPO3-mvc] Fluid / Extbase: empty LazyLoading object is fooling if-conditions

No problem at all :-)

I think that is a bug of Extbase, as the value should be Null if no
object will be loaded.

If you don't want to debug extbase, I'd suggest that you write a custom
ViewHelper which will check if the value is an empty lazy loading proxy:
<f:if condition="{bla.image -> myext:emptyLazyLoadingProxy()}"> ...</f:if>

but that's of course not as nice as fixing extbase :-)

Thanks for your awesome work on Extbase, I already look forward to
reviewing all the patches :)

Greets,
Sebastian
