I was trying to say that "startup.ijs" should be called
for console too. And that would make the standard
method too hookup custom code.
 
In your method, you need to modify profile.ijs or
copy two files. At the same time, startup.ijs is
not installed, thus preserved with new installation.
So no editing or moving is required, or at least
copying of just one file.

I rarely use the GUI (less than 0.1% of my time in j)
so that isn't much use. It also doesn't apply to #! and
CGI scripts -- but good that you point it out. The minor
addition to profile.ijs seems a sensible way to go that
also covers my negligible usage of the IDE.
