Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Replying to [comment:7 jeherve]:
 > We currently have 2 main ways to set a site's address: you can either
 use the UI under Settings > General, or you can use the `WP_HOME` and
 `WP_SITEURL` constants. When you use the constants, the UI remains
 visible, but is grayed out to show that those settings cannot be modified
 from within the UI anymore.
 >
 > I think we could follow a similar approach for this UI: always visible,
 but disabled when one programatically controls the behaviour of the core
 updates (with the `WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE` constant, for example).
 >
 > As an added bonus, we could show an explanation label when the UI is
 disabled, to let site admins know why.

 Just noting that would make the most sense for me too.
