 That wouldn't really fix it, worse: you'll be giving the user a change to
 switch it on, while the are not aware of what they are causing when
 switching it on.

 Imho it's like this: 3.9.x was working fine. People upgrade to 4.x and
 suddenly clicking on the media link crahes your site and in some cases
 even the server because (see my initial report plus the attached pdf file
 with information) the ajax process is running wild all of the sudden.

 Now, that does indicate a code change, doesn't it? So, i'd suggest to
 review the code change and find what has changed and if there are changes,
 was there a need for that? If not, reverse them and roll out a patched
 version.

 I'll be going to take a few risks soon by testing again on a site and
 capture what happens in a video.
