Alright, I actually emailed someone at /n software support about this, and got a fairly prompt and helpful reply, which I'll quote in part for the benefit of the group:

Hope this helps! So, it sounds like my notion about using a property was on target, and that the 'ok' property isn't listed in the regular documentation.
