Thanks, I've kicked off a testing job now to verify nothing unexpected 
fails.

I also ran some local tests on this and it looks good.

I agree, for G1 this should not be controlled. Maybe I was a bit 
unclear, I was wondering why we want to control it for CMS. I think 
either we should change the behavior without guarding it by a flag or 
just skip updating CMS (and leave the pauses in FGC). If we do the 
change for CMS, we should probably also do a CSR, but that should be 
fairly straight forward.

I also found the old review thread where Jon M had the same comment 
(removing the flag) and it looks like all agreed on that:
