Wouldn't it make sense for the 

IF (USE_ITK_FILE)
   INCLUDE(${USE_ITK_FILE})
ENDIF (USE_ITK_FILE)

to be at the end of the FindITK.cmake file? 

An app would still have the option of doing something like

IF (USE_ITK_FILE)
    SET (HAS_ITK TRUE)
ENDIF (USE_ITK_FILE)

if that is what they want to do.
