I think we should then really discuss about what should be considered to be "true" (and what to be "false", so we also figure out if a "bool *ok" parameter is actually needed or not). In my humble opinion, a case insensitive comparison against the string "true" is too generic and weak (not to mention English-only). If that's a way of checking some user input I think it's simply a bad idea to have it inside QString. For instance, Perl thinks that empty string and the literal "0" are false, and any other string is true. In Python and JS only the empty strings are false.
