Thanks, that is brilliant! Will make testing much easier.

Would something also need to be done for texmf-local, like

TEXMFLOCAL = /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local

(to replace $SELFAUTOGRANDPARENT)?

Looking closer through the default texmf.cnf, there's also TEXMFCNF which uses 
$SELFAUTOLOC, $SELFAUTODIR, $SELFAUTOPARENT and $SELFAUTOGRANDPARENT, but if I 
understand correctly this is precisely where the location of texmf.cnf files is 
defined, with $SELFAUTOLOC the location of the currently used binary (ie 
luatex), right?
