Klaas,
In one of the places where I used to work, we added shell script to /etc/init.d/afs to dynamically set up the serverprefs depending on network location. It was fairly simple, but we only had three locations (four servers) so that's a big deal. You could definitely write a more complicated script or program to return shell commands for setting the serverprefs in any language you wanted.
