ref "flags_data_loaded = 1": Mmm... or maybe not so simple?

If there are 100 Template:Flags in one article, and the first one has to load the flags_data module, then flags_data_loaded = 1 but...

Will this variable be remembered when the second, third etc template is parsed? If not, then we will be again in step 1 every time and the trick won't work.
