 Replying to [comment:6 Denis-de-Bernardy]:
 > Or, you could simply hook into `pre_update_option_sticky_posts` and run
 a sanity check on the array that is about to get stored, and return a
 trimmed version of the array.

 there are many possible '''workarounds''', but isn't it better to fix the
 problem than to work around it?

 and hooking into `pre_update_option_sticky_posts` would not be a simple
 matter because at that point I would not have the info on the post that
 was just saved...so I'd have to do something like: check the post_date of
 the latest revision for each of the sticky posts to figure out which one
 had just been edited, etc.  And that would totally violate the
 "conceptual" goal.
