I think that login.conf is a step in the right direction, and I'm 
planning on making tools that support it.  Or, rather, on making the 
tools that already support it on the BSDs also support it on Linux 
operating systems.

* http://netbsd.gw.com/cgi-bin/man-cgi?login.conf

* https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=login.conf

* https://man.openbsd.org/login.conf

* http://jdebp.eu./Softwares/nosh/guide/userenv-fromenv.html

I already use them to set the GUI environment from login.conf on TrueOS.
