boxen::osx_defaults doesn't allow an empty string value

[indirect]

With this manifest:

class osx::safari::homepage($page) {
  boxen::osx_defaults { 'Set the Default Safari Homepage':
    user   => $::boxen_user,
    domain => 'com.apple.Safari',
    key    => 'HomePage',
    value  => $page,
  }
}

class { 'osx::safari::homepage': page => "" }

I get this error:

Error: Cannot ensure present without domain, key, and value attributes at /opt/boxen/repo/shared/boxen/manifests/osx_defaults.pp:23 on node kogarashi.local
Error: Cannot ensure present without domain, key, and value attributes at /opt/boxen/repo/shared/boxen/manifests/osx_defaults.pp:23 on node kogarashi.local

Interesting that Puppet considers this to be == undef.

How to override boxen settings about osx?

I've done:

class kud::security {
  boxen::osx_defaults { 'FIX: short delay for password dialog on screensaver':
    ensure => present,
    domain => 'com.apple.screensaver',
    key => 'askForPasswordDelay',
    value => 0,
    user => $::boxen_user
  }
}

and include it to the node default but i've got that:

Notice: /Stage[main]/Kud::Security/Boxen::Osx_defaults[FIX: short delay for password dialog on screensaver]/Exec[osx_defaults write  com.apple.screensaver:askForPasswordDelay=>0]/returns: executed successfully
Notice: /Stage[main]/Boxen::Security/Boxen::Osx_defaults[short delay for password dialog on screensaver]/Exec[osx_defaults write  com.apple.screensaver:askForPasswordDelay=>5]/returns: executed successfully
