Why not use:

if [ "$FOO" != "" ]


Some shells do not allow that (comparing empty strings)

The . is not very obvious in some fonts, and it's more symmetrical to
quote both sides.


Some time its used [ "x$FOO" != x ]
The same way as '[ "x$FOO" = xyes ]', etc...

Quoting both sides is just wasting two bytes, but I saw that as well,
but it should be consistent trough the script.

Anyhow, so far I saw no complaints about that.
As far as its consistent, it's OK.
