In browsers I'm familiar with, href="#" will jump/scroll to the top of the page if the viewport isn't already homed, so I wouldn't categorize that as inert markup. I would imagine that href="" would more effectively cancel the link, or, of course, eliminating the anchor from the markup altogether. However, the original poster asked if there were a way to disable a link with CSS. I believe this is possible by positioning a transparent foreground GIF on top of the link, rather like a clear plastic shield over a button. The GIF would have to be in the markup, so semantically it might be seen as extraneous, but with a blank alt it should at least be semantically inert.
