Short answer... YES! Now convince the developers to use it. Here's a
trivial example...
* Create a 2-line executable script "foo"
#!/bin/bash
echo "${0}"
* Create a symlink with the command "ln -s foo bar"
* Execute "./foo" and the output will be "./foo"
* Execute "./bar" and the output will be "./bar"
