I removed it, and it now works like this:
When a handler is requiring something, it is stopped and thus disabled.
When the handlers is hapy again you have to re-enable automatically.

I don't think the complexity of this recheck thing is worth the effort,
and the current behavior is completely acceptable: if not requirements
-> uncheck.
