Or just drop the reference so we don't have to fix it later.

Yes, with if/then and setting excluded properties to 'false'.
Personally, I don't think it is worth the messiness. I'm not too
worried if folks put in properties that are going to be ignored.

Not required as alternate modes are not required. (BTW, it should
probably be clarified this is supposed to be the alternate mode
connection of which SBU is part of).
