As you point out, it's about storing local config in a place such that
it won't pollute charm tests; since juju already has a place to store
local config (~/.juju), it'd be nice to store it there instead of in a
wrapper script.

I would think non-charm-developers would also like such a feature since
it would mean that they would have to specify less configuration on
command-lines when invoking juju commands.
