 * 1) If when editing a .php file and saving it in ACE, and the code has a php error
   in it that will trigger WP to auto-disable to plugin as to keep the website from
   white-screening, the editor used to show the error in the popup window. Now it
   doesn’t do so consistently.
 * 2) If, same scenario as above, the error would show up in popup window and at
   the top of the page (when scrolling up). Now it doesn’t show it at the top of
   the page.
 * 3) When the popup window is triggered with the scenario #1, the popup is not 
   wide/tall enough and the overflow text is wrapped which obscures the error output.
   One has 5 seconds to click on the scroll down and see the error or else the window
   disappears. As mentioned in scenario #2, the error is not displayed at the top
   of the page like it used to. So one needs to go to the Plugins page and re-activate
   the plugin each time to see what the error is.
