That is already possible. Additional XML-Sources can be supplied in 
advanced prefs. You could provide an preferences loader-file including the 
link, which can be installed in josm very simple. I have my own private 
XML as well, which I install in all my josm instances.

For the default maps sources externals will not be allowed. That would 
disable the security checks.
