that works for 2 word names eg is_open or is_file, but in this case is_dialog_file_open is structured like a question, while dialog_file_is_open is structured like a statement

Doesn't matter, the point is that, if it starts with "is" then you automatically know it's a boolean.

It still works. is_this_thing_some_thingy. Is is just a prefix for if the suffix returns true/false.
