Apparently you can design a "MTB" system with ultegra/DA road shifters, a DA front deraileur, and a XTR rear derailleur. Add on the XTR front junction box (SC-M9050), you can even get rear gear indicator and synchro shifting.
The 11 speed Ultegra FD is not considered compatible in this set up.

I am a little confused by the chart. The MTB column has two FD, M9050 & M9070. The M9050 is listed on the Shimano web site an is a double chainring FD. The M9070 is not on the web site. The link I am looking at is below and PDF of the page is attached.

I suppose the M9070 may be the triple FD?
The M9070 "User Manual" (attached) is so limited I can't tell from it if the M9070 is a triple or double FD. Basically the "User Manual" seems to be just a page with product warnings.
If the M9070 is a triple FD then I suppose the road shifters in chart would allow for setting up a Di2 mountain triple crank, mountain triple FD with road levers?
