Has this been tested on support.allizom.org or support-release.allizom.org? Will this take immediate effect, or does code need to change to make use of it?

Put another way: is this safe to do? :)

Yes, both support.allizom and support-release have this setting. The code that uses it is behind a waffle switch so we can enable and disable anytime from the django admin.

In other words, yes it is safe to do :)

Excellent. I've made this change on the admin node, and it will go out with the next scheduled SUMO push (tomorrow). That bug is Bug 670663.
