Surely it can be done online. You'll just need a third state between off and

Are you saying you would accept the patch if we had this?

I think I would still be uncomfortable with the hacks in the page header. Less so than in the current form - you wouldn't need a flag to indicate whether the page has a valid checksum or not, which would clean it up quite a bit - but still.
