Such a configuration should not be needed.

When a history with this shape is given to "git bisect":

    ----o---o---X---Y---B
         \     /
          o---G

and you gave G as good, and B as bad, it is a BUG that needs to be
fixed if bisect strayed outside G, X, Y and B.  Setting your new
configuration to false would mean "please run a buggy version of
bisect", which does not make much sense, I would think.
