Comment:

 Even if one installs sophisticated tools like
 http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/core-control/
 you will have to admit !WordPress is booby trapped in that in order to
 install that plugin, one must go to the Dashboard, and in so
 doing, one gets a mouthfull of HTTP requests sent even before one can
 reach for the 'screen options' to turn them off. You just can't win.

 (OK, TRAC has 2.7.1, way at the bottom. #9159.)
