Locale FormatDateTime and null values
When converting an empty (null) datetime string, the default value for datatype datetime will be used (0001-01-01T00:00:00).
You can, however, use to default parameter, to implement specific logic for null values.
By returing null from a nested viper method, the default handling is triggered on the enclosing viper.
