Better to force features by config file option or command line
option, then by code hacked into a branch.  This way we can enable
the feature all of the time in a test case, and push it.  E.g. the
sliding window controls; nobody really uses them in practice (I
don't think anyway) but they are handy in the test cases to force
particular conditions, without creating huge temporary packfiles.
