I would ping her, but I have no handler in the event of NACK

It is very common to use ACK in social contexts as well if you work in IT I have found. Like "had a meeting about that issue, awaiting ACK from John"

Yes, and there's "tACK" and "uACK" for tested and untested acknowledgements of patches. Slightly shorter than "lgtm, your call".

RST + complementary shoulder to cry on

TCP RST, find it what it means to me, TCP RST, Take out UDP! Socket to me, socket to me...
