I am not aware of such a property ...

That seems easier than your current approach. 
(Of course, you can bind it to a key.)

Oh, wait:

,----[ org.el @function org-todo ]
|   (let ((org-blocker-hook org-blocker-hook)
| 	(case-fold-search nil))
|     (when (equal arg '(64))
|       (setq arg nil org-blocker-hook nil))
|     (when (and org-blocker-hook
| 	       (or org-inhibit-blocking
! 		   (org-entry-get nil "NOBLOCKING")))
|       (setq org-blocker-hook nil))
`----

Quick test here works, so yes, there is :)
Use `:NOBLOCKING: t'.
