Emacs TRAMP per host custom path

I am using TRAMP to work on a remote host that has a very weird PATH. I was wondering whether it was possible to customize the PATH used by TRAMP to find the binary files only for this host? Now, I'm using:

(add-to-list 'tramp-remote-path "/some/weird/path/bin")

but it also applies to any other host without this funky PATH, thus messing up all the other hosts' PATHs.

I'm sorry, but this is not possible yet. There is an item on Tramp's todo list for supporting connection-local variables, but this is not implemented yet.

Alternatively, you might set this in the $PATH env variable in your remote .profile. Then you instruct Tramp to use this, by adding tramp-own-remote-path to tramp-remote-path.
