That's not a bad idea.

Personally, I don't like inserting any editor-specific text in my code (I
woundn't use the equivalent Vim cookie either).

My current workaround is to manually add (.\bashrc|\.profile).* to
auto-mode-alist. I just wish this were the default pattern.

... is there another convention for naming multiple bash configs, per
machine, that matches the existing patterns? I guess I could use ".
bashrc.android.sh", ugly but functional.
