Not that I know of (I wasn't aware either that you could do that...)

Another solution would be to say that numbers-only entry is only
possible after having used an explicite duration:  e.g.

c4 4 4 -> c4 c4 c4

but

c4 c 4 -> c4 c4

This way we wouldn't break any existing code (but good luck for
documenting that...)

PS: besides, what's with you guys and this c4 obsession; have you been
playing terrorist video games lately or what? :-)
