Right, a few years ago we required that setting to be (on|off)
(I forget which), but we went through the code afterward in an
effort to make things work either way (via dispelMagicQuotes).

So, as Chuck says, if a piece of code breaks due to that setting,
it's an easily fixed bug.

I'd for removing the check.  It's one less thing for the user to
have to check when installing Horde.
