That is true.
AFAIK only Qov and Lieven ("LLsub", i.e. LL's subtitles) have used it so far:
When Qov translated her phrase, the word was not know yet, so she has used the verb {'ol} "verify" instead. Okrand explained the different saying that {'ol} is used to check a fact, but {woq} is to confirm it. -- Lieven L.
