After Updating to typo3 4.7.1 there is a warning, that NULL is
not a DateTime object. So this workaround is obsolete.

My solution in the model class,
is creating a DateTimeObject with value 0:

public function __construct() {
   // set 0 for unix Timestamp as DateTimeObject
   $tmpDate = new DateTime();
   $this->zeroDateTime = $tmpDate->setTimestamp(0);

}

and an additional method in the model object:

  /**
   * Removes the myDate value
   * UnixTimestamp of $this->zeroDateTime = 0;
   */	
   public function removeDateMyDate() {		
     $this->myDate = $this->zeroDateTime;
   }

Greetings from

Ulrich
