Static::Simple 0.06 (just released) moves the checking into 
prepare_action, so you can bypass other plugins which also use 
prepare_action by listing Static::Simple before your other plugins in 
your setup() line or use Catalyst line.

This may not work for all plugins, since some probably use other prepare 
methods to do their work.  Let me know how it works for you.
