This doesn't test if the control is inactive, it tests if it *might* be
inactive. To test if it is really inactive would require checking the value
of the master control.

So here you assume that if setting the control failed, and if the control
might be inactive, then it probably was inactive.

I feel a bit uncomfortable by this assumption.
