I've wanted something like that myself so that my org files /could/ stand on their own, but so I would need to edit them all if my preferred defaults were to change. Ultimately, I've settled on having an emacs config that I can move with my files. At some point I want to use a package (I can't remember the name) that can split custom configuration into multiple files. What might be nice is to be able to put a token at the top of the file to export the config from custom (or as much as reasonable) into the file using a config name. So in custom you set a configuration name (say eddwards-org-config) and at the top of your file you put #+INLINE_CONFIG: eddwards-org-config and org-mode would insert the configuration after it, replace any config line that might already be there. If the keyword in the file doesn't match what is in custom or if there isn't a name given in the file or custom, then do not insert anything in the file. Org could maybe update all of the agenda files as appropriate. The reason for the name is so I can receive a file from someone else (say my brother) and not have the config info in his file overlaid with mine, distorting how he intended the file to be seen. That would cover my needs for org, but I'll still probably get a custom splitter since I'm starting to use emace for more things and I have at least three separate machine I use it on and I'd like to share some of the customizations.
