Would it be an appealing change to you, if residues with partially resolved are modeled as Ala by mk_prepare_receptor?
In many crystal structures, methyl groups are used as placeholders for unresolved sidechains. Some examples can be found in PDB ID 1FPU (receptor in the Vina flexible docking example). They all have backbones and CB:
REMARK 470 MISSING ATOM
REMARK 470 THE FOLLOWING RESIDUES HAVE MISSING ATOMS (M=MODEL NUMBER;
REMARK 470 RES=RESIDUE NAME; C=CHAIN IDENTIFIER; SSEQ=SEQUENCE NUMBER;
REMARK 470 I=INSERTION CODE):
REMARK 470 M RES CSSEQI ATOMS
REMARK 470 ASP A 226 CG OD1 OD2
REMARK 470 SER A 229 OG

Modeling them as Ala is like placing blunt sidechains on them. The two major advantages are:
Preserving the CB might be helpful for further repairments of the structure.
Not deleting them with --allow_bad_res avoids unnecessary segmentation of the backbone.
What do you think? The feature is not of very high priority. Happy to submit a PR if anyone is interested

I think it's a good idea as long as all backbone atoms and C-beta are present. For charged residues, we could further consider preserving the net charge with some trick as discussed with @mattholc
