Terry Fritz performed a methodical experiment to determine the life expectancy of CDE MMC caps, operated at a peak AC voltage equal to their DC voltage rating. The result (speaking from memory) was that they would last at least 20 hours. While this may not sound like a lot, it's probably a lot more run time than any hobby coil would everaccumulate.
75 hours, actually: http://www.pupman.com/listarchives/2005/Sep/msg00917.html
