By "disabled", do you mean "commented out" ?  If new contributors
see a greyed-out button, they'll get confused and ask silly

than silly -- so IMO it's an even better idea to change the UI if
it gives misleading suggestions.

This is definitely not right; please branch off of master.  We
have absolutely no guarantee that staging will compile the binary,
let alone the documentation.
