Django bindings, header: appbar has no effect? (Splunk Enterprise 6.1)

I'm starting to experiment Splunk Web Framework. Following some tutorials, trying to tweak things here and there. One of the strange things I noticed: a documented appbar (can be true of false) property of HeaderView has no effect on the appearance - appbar is always present.

Here is the beginning of my .html file:

{% extends "splunkdj:base_with_basic_styles.html" %}
{% load splunkmvc %}

{% block content %}
    <div id="my-header">
        {% header id="inner-header" appbar="False" %}
    </div>
    <div id="barchart"></div>
    <div id="message-area"></div>
{% endblock content%}

I tried specifying "true" and "false" as appbar values with various capitalizations - the appbar is simply always there. I know I can change that by inheriting from different base_*.html(the first line - with "extends") but then I will always have footer which I might not want, and overall I want a better degree of freedom. Any ideas?

Found an answer - specify 0 or 1 as a value there. Not enough information on that in the docs, but the default described as "true" misleads one into believing that it's boolean.

So this

{% header id="inner-header" appbar=0 %}

produced the expected result :).
