I don't think so: the other part of this fix is to elide unnecessary resets in the first place. So whenever a property is set to A in one style state, and to B in another style state, you won't see a transient "null" value; instead, you'll only see the A->B change if you observe the property. If anything, I think this _reduces_ the chance for problems arising from transient values that are neither A nor B.
