Nope. Global workdir is just that, global, and only one value will be
remembered.
However, have no fear. The subdir[foo] per-target option allows you to specify
different sub-directories for each target. so you could add: --global
"SubDir[_]: paris" and later on --global "SubDir[_]: london"
Or you can use cfgmaker to make a unique directory per router, using the
--subdirs=HOSTNAME option.
