Thanks Xabier! Unfortunately I don't know much about Chef to be able to patch it.. If I end up implementing this sort of feature, I'll go the route of writing a special recipe that looks at a special place containing environments and attributes. Then it overrides attributes with the ones it found, if applicable. Finally, I'll place that special recipe first thing in the runlist.

 I honestly don't remember how far I get. I rebased this against the
 las Chef 10 stable, but this code is more than a year old and is
 not tested, it may even be incomplete. Used the wrong way can destroy
 the space time continuum.

 If you want to test this with Chef 11, you will also need to patch
 erchef:

https://github.com/opscode/chef_db/blob/master/src/chef_otto.erl#L290
https://github.com/opscode/chef_wm/blob/master/src/chef_wm_malformed.erl#L122
https://github.com/opscode/chef_objects/blob/master/src/chef_role.erl#L70
[...]
