This is what Cedric used calling the Boolean() javascript constructor
to create a true boolean.

In issue2550905 to discuss testing I mention in msg6744 that we have
no testing for chameleon or jinja2 templating engines and poor
coverage on the TAL engine. Testing for this type of return value
and enforcing it through tests could be a good first test case
for jinja2. Created issue2551095 to test/enforce this.

However even without that test, I am inclined to commit Cedric's
patch including the simplemede template fix.
