Specicially I would like to use the account "" or "[some constant string that is not likely to be mistaken for a real account name".
I tried that long ago, perhaps before 1.2. There was a function you could pass account name to (i.e. fake whatever you wanted, while maintaining their sv[profile][account][character] structure). I wanted to use that to read another account's settings, for example - but the function was bugged (and I reported that) in such a way that it didn't work at all - they forgot to pass that parameter down and it ended up in some kind of "nil argument" error.

After all the trouble with saved variables, I'd advise everyone to simply avoid ZO_SavedVars altogether.
