When submitting a form using kssSubmitForm: currentForm(), if the form includes the following option:
<option value="">my option</option>
KSS sends "my option" as the field value, instead of "" as I would expect.
This appears to be thanks to the following code in fo.getValueOfFormElement in forms.js:
var option = element.options[element.selectedIndex]
// on FF and safari, option.value has the value
// on IE, option.text needs to be used
value = option.value || option.text;
<option value="">my option</option>
