Well, if the src blocks export nothing, the graphics results are not produced and no files are created. 

Here is an ECM that when exported with `C-c C-e l o y y` (or 'yes RET' for each `y' depending on your setup)


1) Produces two graphics files:
   - fig1.png
   - fig2.png

2) Produces file `subfigures.pdf` with a page with one figure containing those
   subfigures rendered side-by-side.

If you modify the ECM to change `:exports results' to `:exports none' and clean older fig[12].png's from the  directory, the export fails.

Of course, there are workarounds to having Type=file implied by Format=graphics. So if everyone else is determined to make this change I can live with it.

Best,
Chuck
