STUSB4700 : Sourcing only when external power is available, product drawing from Vbus otherwise

I'm hoping to use the STUSB4700 in a product design.  The product needs to be supplied by normally by a tablet (only 5V @ 100mA required).  Sometimes the product will have external power available and when it does, I want to source power to the tablet.  Understanding the STUSB4700 is not a dual role, can I simply draw from Vbus for the sink scenario and then when external power is available, the STUSB4700 jumps into action and negotiates sourcing?

Ref page 21 application example of datasheet.

Looks like no support is available here...?
