Bahuvrihi Configurable

Seems like the answer is yes:

  # Initializes config. Default config values
  # are overridden as specified by overrides.
  def initialize_config(overrides={})
    delegates = self.class.configurations

    # note the defaults could be stored first and overridden
    # by the overrides, but this is likely more efficient
    # on average since delegates duplicate default values.
    store = {}
    overrides.each_pair do |key, value|
      store[key] = value
    end
    delegates.each_pair do |key, delegate|
      store[key] = delegate.default unless store.has_key?(key)
    end

    @config = DelegateHash.new(delegates, store).bind(self)
  end
