Thanks for the patch, but it is not obvious that skipping src blocks
that cannot be executed is always a good idea.
Consider, for example, that some blocks are used as input for other
blocks. Then, failing to execute them means that other blocks may have
unpredictable side effects.

May you please provide a concrete use-case when skipping some src code
blocks is desired?
