You could do
$ unset DISPLAY && path/to/command
.. to get rid of the reference to the X-Display before running a command
from an X-term. Alternatively you could run the command from a console.
A headless machine in a gigbag would start in runlevel 2 or 3 with no X,
so the DISPLAY variable is never set and the app won't try to show any
UI.
