I agree.
Though not "needed", I do think that the nullptr (or whatever is approved by the committee) syntax will improve readability in cases where you need to pass a null pointer value to a function (and you're too lazy to look up the signature). Using 0 in this case does make it slightly easier to confuse the arguments.
However I will always use the "boolean style" tests as I find them more intuitive (not to mention more compact syntactically).
