My acknowledgment status does not seem to be propagating up the page levels (and I want it to). On the host's originating page, I see a yellow check box. But on the parent page, I still see a yellow ball. I'm trying to figure out if it _should_ be propagating and something is wrong, or it should _not_ be propagating and I need to figure out how to change the default behavior.

This is a pre-production 4.3.12 so not very much has been changed from stock.

The check has never propagated up for me. I don't know if that's changeable. I think it would be nice as well, at least at first glance.

I now see that the checkbox propagates to nongreen.html but not to any 
of the host's parent pages. Maybe this is by design?

Maybe I've misunderstood the meaning of NOPROPACK?
