Elixir/Erlang nil/null problem

[grepz]

Having some problems with elixir/erlang null/nil coding/decoding. Jiffy has wonderful option use_nil, which does following:

 jiffy:encode(#{a => nil}, [use_nil]).
<<"{\"a\":null}">>

Why not use same approach in msgpack? Having similar option that handles nil/null as one entity. Changes in code are minimal.
