Summary
Indicates that only metadata should be added to the document and a file should not
actually be written to the file system. This is useful for preprocessing documents
so they appear in a pipeline with the correct write metadata, while actually
writing them later with a second Wyam.Core.Modules.IO.WriteFiles module invocation.
Only the following metadata values are written when this flag is turned on:
WritePath, RelativeFilePath, RelativeFilePathBase,
and RelativeFileDir. The Destination... metadata values are
not added to the document when only setting metadata..
