Unless I'm mistaken, Upstart looks in $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/upstart for user
session job configuration (and override) files. If you're not already,
you could prepend /custom to this list and then dropping overrides into
/custom/upstart should work.

I don't think this applies to system jobs though, and I'm not sure what
the answer would be there, if you need that.

Cheers,
