More or less its true for GNU/Linux systems, I am not aware of other
platforms though.
For example both on Fedora and Ubuntu, all the skeleton dot files reside
in /etc/skel/ (note the minor correction to my previous suggestion). Few
months back I successfully built a Fedora livecd from a kickstart file
with a custom .emacs skeleton file which translated into a pretty
customised emacs for the live user.
In other words this could be very easily scalable solution to large *nix
deployments. :)
