Emit empty string instead of null

[mdmoura]

I am serializing the following object:

public class Post {
  public Int32? Id { get; set; }
  public String Title { get; set; }
}

Post post = new Post { Id = null, Title = "Using SharpYaml" };

var result = serializer.Serialize(post);

On the output I get the following:

id: null
title: Using SharpYaml

Is it possible to display an empty string on Id when its value is null, e.g:

id: 
title: Using SharpYaml

Afair, there are no options for doing this.

That would be useful as for example, in my case, the generated YAML files will be edited afterwards by content editors and having simply "id:" rather than "id:null" is easier to understand.

I was also testing YAMLDotNet and it is rendered as empty string ...

But I think YAMLDotNet has many limitations on configuration so I moved to SharpYaml
