email_template_config adds the feature to remove the "force mail send" default parameter for mail templates.
Without this, payment reconciliations in Cooperators fail whenever there is an issue when sending the user portal invitation email. This is unpleasant for new implementation, when one wants to test the cooperator data before the go live, so before these emails are sent, and be able to reconcile share increases whose automatic email cannot be turned off.
The problem arose post migration to v14, since email_template_config hasn't been ported yet.
