There was a commit made 4 days ago that’s seemed to introduce some unexpected functionality.

This added line makes the following `if` statement in `user.hbs` always evaluate to true:  
`{{if model.profileBackground 'has-background' 'no-background'}}`

Here `model.profileBackground` is always truthy and thus always results in the `has-background` class being applied to the element.

I’ve just tested this on the live [meta.discourse.org](http://meta.discourse.org) and it still seems to be happening. Is there something I’m missing here or is it a genuine bug?

Thanks for reporting it. It seems empty safe strings in ember don’t evaluate as fasley!
