 LosFormatter.Deserialize(String.Empty) should return null, and not
 string.empty!

+In MS 2.0 I get:
+[ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.
+Parameter name: inputString]
+   System.Web.UI.ObjectStateFormatter.Deserialize(String inputString)
++1971679
+   System.Web.UI.LosFormatter.Deserialize(String input) +11

+for a Deserialize (String.Empty).
+
+With 1.x, MS returns an empty string.
