This would be a departure from all existing header arguments none of which will require a prompt. In fact the only time that evaluating a code block can lead to a prompt is through the confirmation construct which is allowed to be special because it is a security concern. That said if you do want more complex behavior like prompting you should be able to add this sort of thing to the `org-babel-pre-tangle-hook'.
