I was going to reply before, after I looked it up and can only see the owner. But I haven't found any examples of enabling/disabling using it. Just changing the size of the item or the color. So it seems to be used more for display properties of drawing something rather then event properties, so to speak.

Actually, here someone responds to this exact question, asking why you just wouldn't remove the disabled items from the list and just not display them:
