Ability to skip expand validation parameters in Cognos 11 silent/unattended installation as supported in UI mode.

We bundle Cognos 11 with our Product called Windchill.
Cognos get installed in silent/unattended mode.
Cognos 11 support distributed installation using Expand install option.
On Expand install screen if we do not specify or enter invalid information, UI shows warning message to continue or cancel the installation.
Using continue user can proceed with installation.

But in silent/unattended mode if we don't specify respective silent response parameters like following :
BISRVR_CANALYTICS_URL
BISRVR_NAMESPACE
BISRVR_COGNOSUSER
BISRVR_COGNOSUSER_PASSWORD
then it fails with error
Install error: The expand validation parameters specified in the response file did not validate properly. please verify that all parameters are correct and try running the install again.
The key parameters in the response file are the following: BISRVR_CANALYTICS_URL, BISRVR_COGNOSUSER, BISRVR_COGNOSUSER_PASSWORD, BISRVR_NAMESPACE ( depending on your installation type ).

So could not continue installation as supported in UI mode.
Can Cognos Analytics would provide ability to bypass such validation in unattended mode.
