Why I18n.translate method accepts null values but no empty string?

[pedrocss]

If translate method raise an exception with empty string, so nil key should raise too?

This works:
> I18n.t(nil) "translation missing: pt-BR.no key"
but this not:
> I18n.t("") I18n::ArgumentError: I18n::ArgumentError

I think you're right, nil key should raise an I18n::ArgumentError.
Pull requests welcome, just sayin' :)
