check_self (cleanse --nofix_quick A || cast A) found the spell A broken, so 
it 
recast it, pulling B along.

Perhaps check_self should have special logic for on_dispel. Switching 
optional 
dependencies off is certainly doable. I see one problem though: if A was 
broken before B was dispelled, cleanse would fail and this new logic would 
switch B off regardless of it being the culprit or not.
