Can I choose which files to download before it puts empties on the file system?

Yes. It might create some folder structure, but if you choose at the time of adding the torrent to not download particular files, it won't create files. Tested just now on 1.3.1/Linux. I haven't tested recently, but I know I've gone in after adding the torrent, told it not to download some files, deleted what it had on the fs, and it did not regenerate them.
