This is currently possible as you can select the environment once in a Collection. You might say this is exactly what I am asking, but there's a difference: this sets the environment, but there are Apps, a.k.a "Collection", specific configurations that are desired for different Apps, e.g. the App's name that feeds directly into the URL.
