[AE] Scripting: controlling ACR options when importing footage?

Hi everyone,
when I import some footage that is using Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) a
dialog pops up where I can set the details of the raw import.
While this is certainly desired when importing footage manually, its
a no go when I try to import hundreds of clips automatically with a
script. Is there any way to control the ACR settings inside a script
and to suppress the dialog?
Here is the code I am using. Unfortunately the importOptions object
has no settings documented for ACR.
----------------------------------
var footageFile = new File("D:\\test000000.dng");
var importOptions = new ImportOptions(footageFile);
importOptions.sequence = true;
importOptions.importAs = ImportAsType.FOOTAGE;
var footageItem = app.project.importFile(importOptions);
// now the ACR dialog is presented to the user... :-(
----------------------------------
Is there any hope I can apply some ACR import preset automatically
and suppress the dialog?
