We could, but I don't think it is worth the effort (and anyway, it would override the config :) ). > Stepping back and looking how the compaction heuristic turned out, > I think this is what we did not want to see, i.e. the need to bring it in > every command, but rather enable and release it.

Yeah, I'm not excited to be plumbing it through, especially if we just end up flipping it on by default. But perhaps people would still want to be able to do the opposite (turning it off for a specific case via the config).
