If it is a per application setting, then it should be on your application
class. You could set this value through your properties file, so you could
supply a different value per deployment.
You're right, it doesn't belong in the page wrapper. On the app, you could
reach it in a rule using session.context.page.application.region. There may be
a shorter way to get to that, but I've never needed an application value in my
rules before.
