Does multi-exec make sense without target-async?

Hi,
I just want to make sure I understand this right.
There is no point in running multi-exec without
target-async on, right?
I mean, if I have two inferiors and I run one,
there is no way for me to tell GDB to also
run the second one? To do that, I have to
interrupt the first to get the prompt.
I originally thought of using 'continue -a'
to resume all inferiors, but the -a flag
is only for non-stop it seems.
Thanks
Marc
FYI, I'm asking because for all-stop in
Eclipse, we don't use target-async. I know
we probably should, but there was not big
reason to make that change... until now
maybe.
