Expose IsConverted in Lead object

Currently if you write your own Lead Conversion in APEX (which needs to be done if you are populating custom objects rather than an Opportunity) there is no way to mark that lead as converted. Even setting the status to 'Closed - Converted' leaves the lead in the Open Leads view. If the isConverted boolean flag were exposed, this would solve the problem.

You can basically do this in Apex already. Just use the Database.convertLead() call and when setting up the conversion options elect not to create an opportunity ( LeadConvert.setDoNotCreateOpportunity(true) ) and you can convert the Lead into an Account and Contact that have already been created.
