How to avoid handlers to get triggered when using --check

[Manoj]

Hi,

Since Ansible doesn't allow to tag and skip handlers, how can I skip checking the handler init script exists when I run the playbook with --check?

For example

- name: restart webserver

  service:

    name: httpd

    state: restarted

If httpd is not installed previously then I dont want Ansible to  check /etc/init.d/httpd exists when I use the --check option. 

Thanks

Manoj
