Description

@sirtwist

Steps to reproduce

Update a work item field with impersonation enabled (i.e. .impersonate=onBehalfOfInitiator)

A simple update ( self["Custom.CustomField"] = 10) or any other update will trigger an error.

Version 1.0.1

Expected behavior

WorkItem should be updated successfully

Actual behavior

Update fails with the message: "Remove requires Value to be null."

Diagnostic logs

Running it locally and adding some additional debug info:
