I don't think so...  If SSEL is low it selects the SPI as a slave;
clearly documented.  To prevent the SPI from being selected as a
slave, the signal must be high and held there - a pullup resistor is
appropriate.

Further, SSEL is an input and inputs can never be allowed to float.  I
agree that there could be a note in the datasheet but I have never
seen a 'perfect' datasheet.  But I do think that Philips is doing much
better than most with their technical writing.
