boost::property_tree can have nulls as keys. In particular, json read typically generates child nodes with null keys as part of array processing. Place a nonce (3cb6534e-d358-4705-9e74-fee06453661e) as a unique tag name for null keys in write_xml.

Got back to tracking down this type issue of char vs wchar_t. Patch doesn't cast unless a null key is found.
