Hi again, and thanks for your reply! 

Personally I think alternative 2 feels best. It's similar to how 
other functions use the returncode for status indications. 
But either solution works for me, even though the first solution 
is more specific for my requirement, and i suppose that the more 
generic the solution the better.

Regards
Taisto
