I have a few scripts to maintain my repositories, and among other
things, they add (and update) multiple flavors of (unversioned) wiki
homepages (the remote homepages have more links, such as
login/logout/index, and the local ones show a reminder about syncing).

Some repositories have customized wiki homepages, and for these I
would like to skip the updates of the default homepages. It seems like
a simple solution to add a custom value to Fossil's `config' table to
indicate whether or not the homepages are customized.

Is this a safe and encouraged approach? Is it harmless but
discouraged, or even harmful? Would such custom values be excluded
from syncing?

This task seems more complicated to do with the `fossil uv' interface,
as it doesn't allow to query the hashes or time stamps of unversioned
files. Also, not sure if wiki pages allow embedded comments (standard
HTML comments do not seem to work?) that could be searched for custom
settings? Another approach I see is keeping custom configuration data
in unversioned files of their own. Or does anybody know of a better
method?
