Alternately to Bruno's suggestion, you can set the body mask such that
it will not interact with other bodies.

BTW I would also like to have some flag for unreal bodies (like clumps
or -- if that comes -- meshes; they are just collections of other
spheres/facets), but that now there are other changes coming up (like
separation of body state / body material) and we better do that once
those things are settled a little bit.
