I’m sure I worked this out before but have completely forgotten (but could have been mental ray), and cannot find an old scene that I tested it with. I currently have an object that I’d like to have the multimatte pass rendered but it has a glass object in front of it, which in turn is occluding it…

In your glass object in the refraction section, there is an option: affect alpha. I think this is what you are looking for.
