Toggle option with dcop

Is it possible to toggle boolean options via dcop?
I want to mute/unmute kmix with my mute button, but the setMute function can only take "true" or "false", not "toggle".
Maybe I'm using the wrong keyword?

You could first query the current state with mute(deviceIndex) and then set the other value, or use toggleMute

But this might be new in 3.4

Wow, I missed that option. Thanks!

Though, it should be possible to give 'toggle' or something as the argument to a boolean dcop option. This should, in my opinion, be built-in with the dcop system.
