### Description
It would be nice to have a nullable bool type (like in other languages). Now the bool type is true
or false, but in some cases you don't know the status of the bool value yet.
Example:
You have a model 'Project' with some basic properties (title, description, ....). After a
certain period of time you want to add a new bool property "$has_certain_data". You want
the user to explicitly set this value on true or false, meaning all the current data should have the
value null, as the value is not yet known.
