No turn-off option at the moment. If you don't need these features, you 
just don't use these features. The two features are: internal connections 
in footprints and the "nonetlist" flag. The actual jumper is a footprint 
that defines an internal connection between the two pads and is marked 
"nonetlist". It's pretty easy to avoid using the footprint.

Hmm, how exactly could you shoot yourself in the foot with it? Maybe we 
can make it safer if we see the risks.
