Those flags are a bodge already and don't necessarily mean what you think they do. REQUIRES_ARTWORK is really just a hint that if you disable bezels, overlays, etc. you might not be able to use the system. REQUIRES_CLICKABLE_ARTWORK is a hint to the MAME core to disable mouse capture in windowed mode and display a pointer during emulation in full-screen mode. I'm not sure exposing them in their current form is a great idea.
