There will be a something like this in the beta branch (Cool). For now it's
up to the programmer to feed the appropriate configuration.

Your approach to use a common configuration is OK and easy to configure for
the admin. Alternatively you could think of a neseted configuration for
such a nested uasage. Cool will just ship a pointer to the configuration of
each controller instead of the whole setup itself.
