 * How to remove this warning from the dashboard?
    I prefer to use Google XML Sitemaps.
   That feature is turned off in WordPress SEO. What’s the issue?
 * “Warning!
 * The Google XML Sitemaps plugin(s) might cause issues when used in conjunction
   with Yoast WordPress SEO.
 * Both WordPress SEO by Yoast and Google XML Sitemaps can create XML sitemaps. 
   Having two XML sitemaps is not beneficial for search engines, yet might slow 
   down your site.
 * Configure WordPress SEO’s XML Sitemap settings
 * Recommended solution
    We recommend you deactivate Google XML Sitemaps and have
   another look at your WordPress SEO configuration using the button above.
 * Deactivate Google XML Sitemaps “

 * This is an annoyance and borderline deceptive. Can this “feature” be rolled back?
