<p>The <code>exists</code> predicate is primarily for object data types, like
HTTP headers and query parameters.  It works on string fields by simply returning
<code>true</code> if the <code>exists</code> value is <code>true</code> and the
string if non-empty.  Setting the <code>exists</code> value to <code>false</code>
inverts the meaning.</p>
