I see that command-line option --ignoreNiftiHeaders is available, which suppresses a subset of errors produced when running on these data. However another error appears reporting that empty files are not permitted.
I wonder if the intent of the existing --ignoreNiftiHeaders option is to facilitate execution of the validator against data-stripped datasets, but it is no longer exhaustive in such and therefore no longer achieves its purported aim. What would be better is a command-line option along the lines of "disable data checks"; ie. validate the filesystem path, and associated metadata, but bypass all checks of data file contents (image header, file size, anything else)?

I am currently attempting to execute the validator, with a proposed update to the scheme, on a proposed example dataset: https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-specification/pull/1864 https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-examples/pull/452
