axis.x.tick.values = [] does not work with bar chart

It does not hide only the ticks it also hides all bars in the chart. Example is in the fiddle

http://jsfiddle.net/831kje72/1/

Start with the reproducible fiddle at http://jsfiddle.net/831kje72/1/ and trace how axis.x.tick.values = [] is handled for a bar chart. Confirm the behavior where hiding ticks also hides all bars; done means only the ticks are hidden and the bars remain visible.
