Comment (by johnbillion):

 [attachment:38652.activate-deactivate.diff] covers the following
 situations:

 * Activate/Deactivate links on the Plugins listing screen.
 * Actual activation and deactivation cap check, including bulk activation
 and deactivation.
 * The 'Activate' link shown after a shiny plugin installation.
 * The 'Activate Plugin' link shown after a non-shiny (ie. fallback) plugin
 update.
 * Plugin error scraping.

 It does not cover network activation/deactivation. This can be handled
 separately.
