No, but you can insert the HTML you want by hand per-list from the
administrative pages, or site-wide by editing the templates. It only took
me a few seconds to do.
It's obvious that I can code by hand via the admin interface -- and messing with the templates does not allow the per-client customizability I'd prefer, apart from doing a separate install for each client. But since I have the multiple domain thing happening, I have no desire to go that route!
Hand-updating changes to the pages misses the whole point of being able to do includes -- one change impacts multiple pages. If I could learn how to create list-specific<MM-variables> perhaps that would be another approach -- would they allow me to pass HTML to the browser? Of course -- they do that for the public pages generated. Thinking out loud here. Okay -- it's something to play with. I couldn't point a separate HTML file into the public pages, but perhaps could create one unique footer per client (per list), for example, and send that in with a variable ...
