That is not possible yet. There were some discussions about it, but the effort 
would require registering a universal label and publishing a SMPTE document 
that documents the storage of FFV1 within MXF.

But it's some context loss. For instance if the source DPX is logarithmic I'd 
be skeptical that the ffv1.mkv rendition would present logarithmically.

IIRC, in ffmpeg options for non-existant tracks are ignored, so you may be able 
to leave the audio arguments in for media with no audio tracks.

Right. Using framemd5s is recommend for verifying losslessness. It prevents 
finding images like this: https://twitter.com/dericed/status/483626811356893184
