I tried this; it doesn't work.  A power-only cable works fine, 
but a data-only cable does not.  It behaves as if it's not 
connected at all.

If you'd like to try it, it's easy to do by simply covering the 
VCC pin with tape on the large end of the cable (or both middle 
pins, for a power-only cable).  Kapton tape works great if you 
have some.
