Parts Immune To Associative Machining

This might be more of a thought exercise than useful, but is there a way to make a part or material type immune to associative machining? The example I'm thinking of is loose laminate parts that are being post-lam'd after assembly. The only reason they process is for getting a good take off on quantities, so the fact that they have dowel index holes or cleat dadoes in them really doesn't matter, as they're cut by hand out of the sheet. But it definitely makes me curious if this is possible, or a thing or not, just in case I come across a situation where I might need it (even though I can't think of one). I guess the easiest solution is just change the origin points, since these are normally parts without draw tokens anyway.
