Hi,

Could you help me understanding the reason for this line? I have not looked at the whole source code of your nice gem, but I migrated from 1.3.2 to 1.4.5, and I'm pretty sure this line is breaking the thing. I now get an undefined method error (in my case `prevent_geocoding=`, because I've defined `prevent_geocoding` as the `checker`).

I had no problem before, geocoding was performed when my `prevent_geocoding` method was returning `false`. Looking at the code, I don't understand why it's needed to set `checker` to `true` here (whichever the old or new version).

I can't see why there the `checker` should be set to `true`, but the new way of performing it seems to be the cause of the break.

Thanks in advance for the explanation, and help to get over the bug with the new version!
Regards
