Current styles that teach technique mastery in MA (I can not say about Gladiators or Fairbarn, asn I only have the main MA book)
Capoeira: Technique Mastery (Kicking).
Chin Na: Technique Mastery (Arm Lock) and Technique Mastery (Finger Lock).
Judo: Technique Mastery (Judo Throw) and Technique Mastery(Sacrificial Throw).
Muay Thai: Technique Mastery (Knee Strike)
Savate: Technique mastery (Kicking)
Shaolin Kung Fu: Technique Mastery (Any kicking technique)
Tae Kwon Do: Technique Mastery (Any kicking technique)
Wushu: Technique Mastery (Any spinning attack)
As you see, the most "abusive" combination is Technique Mastery/kicking, and then since kicking isn't the base of other kicking techniques (as it was in 3rd ed) it isn't really bothersome. Spinning attacks are also a very useful technique to put technique master in, as they combine a feint and a strike, and not winning the feint actually penalizes the attacker, by increasing the defense.
