 * I am beginning to like this plugin in its latest avatar. Hated it 2 years ago.
 * But please — on any real website we need the ability to turn the caching plugin
   on and off.
 * This plugin croaks if the `define('WP_CACHE', true);` is left in the wp_config.
   Why do you care?
 * Use it if it exists. Don’t use it when your plugin is disabled. Let me get on
   with it. It’s highly annoying that I cannot activate/reactivate this plugin from
   just the WordPress screen. I have to go into the SSH and edit the stupid line.
 * Pls consider this tweak.

 * What do you mean croaks?
 * WordPress tries to load wp-content/advanced-cache.php if that constant is defined
   and AFAIR doesn’t check if the file exists. Is that what you mean? Unfortunately
   I can’t fix that as it’s a core WordPress issue.
