How does this differ from -c [config file]

   yum -c /etc/yum-updates-released update
   yum -c /etc/yum-watch-list list updates
   yum -c /etc/yum-watch-list update foo

To me it seems that multiple config files works just fine.
If I wanted to I could script up a wrapper (my-yum) that
did the same thing you are asking (use -c under the hood).
