No, but sharing scripts of the same version... like the binary is
shared.

Did you never saw /usr/share/fooapp-X.Y/ or /usr/share/fooapp/X.Y/?
Unix apps have no problem with shared and user config, allowing
versions in both cases, and even having a global dir that is always
read (and if uncompatible, admins fixes it). Just look around for
examples, you should find enough to get an idea.
