From: KONRAD Frederic <fred.konrad@greensocs.com>

We know there will be cases where MTTCG won't work until additional work
is done in the front/back ends to support. It will however be useful to
be able to turn it on.

As a result MTTCG will default to off unless the combination is
supported. However the user can turn it on for the sake of testing.
