Middleman Frontmatter flag for build

Is it possible in middleman to add a frontmatter flag like "use_in_build" with values true or false. And skip these during build process?

Depending on your need for setting this flag, it might suffice to use the filename convention: any file that begins with an underscore (_) is skipped during build.

There is published: false for the middleman-blog extension. Maybe you can extend this to the rest of the middleman build somehow.

I don't think you do that using the frontmatter, but you can specify files to ignore in config.rb.

configure :build do
  ignore /page.html/ # Regular expression
end

Is that any use to you?
