It's probably a consequence of distance map being calculated on render start only in v4 to speed up scene interactions.
A solution would be to make it optional whether a distance map is doing it the old or the new way. Best within the distance map, not as a global option. I agree that it would be needed to offer this option in v4.

If that's the case then indeed some kind of switch would be a good compromise.
