I think I've already read the request from several other people to have 
a global / project local rcfile which includes default options to the 
user's likings - and I guess this should be fairly easy to implement as 
well. We'd only have to call into some lua hook "expand_command(cmd, 
opts, args)" f.e. right after read_options() in monotone.cc:232, in 
which everybody can add / change his or her favourite options.

(afaik mtn already looks for _MTN/monotonerc, correct?)
