You can completely replace pdftex.cfg with \input pdftexconfig.tex :
\pdfoutput=...
...
\pdfpkresolution=1200
\pdfimageresolution=...


and these will be dumped into your format.

I agree that the whole tex thing lacks a model for a central
configuration tool. But I don't think it will be solved either by
pdftex.cfg.
