Yes. Let's get to that "soon".

A simple hack is to add it to the "ui" table in the database.

It would be nice (and simple) if this option was exposed in 
Admin/Settings/VCS like for example largefiles are...

One reason is that the Mercurial config structure also to some extent is 
used when hosting Git repos in Kallithea. It would be weird if Mercurial 
config options kicked in when using Git ... and almost equally weird if 
they only applied to Mercurial repos. That could be solved somehow.

We would also have to figure if it only should use what Mercurial 
internall call "systemrcpath" or also "userrcpath". And to which extent 
`kallithea/lib/utils.py` `make_ui` should reuse logic from 
`mercurial/ui.py`.
