You really don't want to be setting prices using a mv_price modifier,
for security reasons.

As your <form> will include a (presumably hidden) input field that sets
the price, there's nothing to stop anyone from forging that form and
supplying their own price.

To answer your question, no, there is no flag that gets set when a
modifier is used.  You could define a second modifier name (perhaps
called "price_provided") and set that true/false in a second hidden
variable in your <form>.  You'd still have the same security concerns,
of course.
