| 437 Implementation: **Non-standard:** Web IDL specifies the EmptyString identifier f
or both these extended attributes, and `Null` and `Missing` for `TreatUndefinedA
s`. Blink uses the `NullString` identifier instead of `EmptyString` which yields
a Blink null string, corresponding to JavaScript `null`, for which both `String
::IsEmpty()` and `String::IsNull()` return true, instead of the empty string `""
`, which is empty but not `null`. This is for performance reasons; see [Strings
in Blink](https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/document/d/1kOCUlJdh2WJMJGDf-WoEQ
hmnjKLaOYRbiHz5TiGJl14/edit) for reference. It also does not implement `TreatUnd
efinedAs=Null` or `TreatUndefinedAs=Missing`. | 443 Implementation: **Non-standard:** Web IDL specifies the EmptyString identifier f
