Because of the way the MultiGeocoder constructs the constant names for which providers to use, and how the GoogleGeocoder3 constant is named, it is impossible to use GoogleGeocoder3 with MultiGeocoder. There are a couple of ways to fix this. Rename/alias GoogleGeocoder3 to Google3Geocoder, or allow classes to be configured as providers (which would also allow for external extension).

This is especially problematic since the geokit rails integrations are all hard-coded to use MultiGeocoder.
