I can understand you wanting to keep it simple and it was only an idea and not necessary, like you say the XBMC can be configured for path substitution via advancedsettings.xml it was only when I saw it in another application I thought it would be a nice idea
I don't think this would be needed for everyone so if not set could take the default therefore not complicating it for users who do not need it but giving the option for people that might benefit from it, your idea of replacing from a ViMM to Mediaplayer point of view sounds like the right idea, maybe in the screen where you add the paths there could be a field next to the path for inputting the media player path, if left blank just takes the ViMM path? This would then also deal with multiple locations which actually would apply to me.
