Hmm... it looks like this would require a change to bin/profile.ijs
Specifically, replace the line:
config=. user,'/config'
with something like
config=. (2!:5'HOME'),'/.config/',({.~i.&'/')9!:14''
And possibly some other work at install time.
That said, this would not be portable to other operating systems.
I think it would be easier to install a symbolic link at ~/.confg/j904
(or J903 or whatever) pointing to J's config directory.
