Yes, that's exactly what I do now (sans elision).

http://www.cyber.com.au/~twb/.curlrc
http://www.cyber.com.au/~twb/.wgetrc
http://www.cyber.com.au/~twb/.w3m/config
http://www.cyber.com.au/~twb/.config/midori/config

Occasionally that causes problems, too -- I noticed that Atlassian
Crucible completely fails to work in midori, where I set that... but it
works fine in GtkLauncher, the test browser that ships with the
webkitgtk library that midori is using.  It occurred to me (after it was
too late to confirm) the most likely case was Crucible sending different
content depending on U-A.
