May I suggest a short comment is added to the script to document why

Someone else reading the script in the future is going to wonder the same-z and 
-n

Some shells do not work well if variable is not set when using -z and -n.
In case FOO was not set at all they break, but work if FOO="" as expected.

Anyhow, IMHO 'if [ ".$FOO" != . ]' is more readable then 'if [ -n "$FOO" ]'
I always end wondering if I should use -z or -n :)
