Actually, we might need a custom option in the mozconfig at some point, in case it would make any difference to the way that the project branch should be set up.

Custom mozconfig contents can be handled in the same way as the rentable branches, there is a check in the mozconfig used by this (soon to be created) branch that checks for mozconfig-extra or mozconfig-extra-$platform so that you can do custom things and just hgignore those before merging to trunk.

Also - eta on this branch is going to be a little longer than it should be because of getting the aurora/beta automation up in time for this week's release.  Once those are landed I can get to this - so perhaps middle of this week, and hopefully before the end of the week.  Your patience is appreciated, we've got a few things to iron out in the new "train" model :)
