Comment (by rmccue):

 Replying to [comment:101 tollmanz]:
 > I think my situation was similar to what you described. "wp-content" is
 not symlinked elsewhere. It follows a typical Capistrano setup.

 This is more about handling if a plugin itself is symlinked; e.g. `wp-
 content/plugins/myplugin/` -> `/var/www/common/myplugin/`

 Moving `wp-content` is separate (and usually done by defining
 `WP_CONTENT_DIR`/`WP_CONTENT_URL`) and probably won't be affected here.

 Also, <3 nacin.
