      In some cases it is possible to query for the undefined type. If full document matching is bypassed, such a query can match an empty array, which is stored in the index using the undefined type.

      > c.ensureIndex( { a:1 } )
      > c.save( { a:[] } )
      > c.find( { a:{ $in:[ undefined ] } } )
      { "_id" : ObjectId("4f7a117c37365e9167f24ed3"), "a" : [ ] }
