The way I see it, if you have two or more such blocks of code, your proposal
will prevent more than one call to the init functions FROM THE SAME SITE,
but won't prevent more than one call from different sites.
Even if there were some reason why one can be sure that there will be
at most one such site, it would be more robust to put the static bool
variables in the init functions themselves.
