Thanks Tom,

The HOT humanitarian tile server is at OSM-Fr. I will validate with them if it is possible to add the CGI script.

It's not fixable - that option relies on a CGI script on the tile server 
that generates images on the fly from the rendering database.

So it can only be supported for layers that offer that script, which 
basically means our own layer. If any of the operators of the other 
layers want to support that then I can easily enable it, but I doubt 
that most of them will.
