Can you still use symlinks to js, css etc for multisite sites using index.config.php?

Hi wise ones, have been going round in circles for a while, so figured I'd ask it's possible before going down the rabbit hole again.
If it is possible, I'd love to maybe get a nudge in the right direction.

I'm playing around with multisite using index.config.php and I can't get the usually simple symlink stuff for CSS/JS etc working.

Have confirmed that I can access the directories and files and create the symlink.
Unlike single site install, which has always been delightfully simple, I can't seem to get it working.

Am I missing something really obvious or does it just not work because of the index.config.php symlinks to the site itself?

As always, any pointers in the right direction are much appreciated.

Not meaning to raise a zombie thread, but in case others have this question...

Instead of symlinks, it may make sense for you to set up a root installation that holds all of the things you'd like to share and then alter config paths in your config file...

So for example, in a /site-realsite/ installation with a root /site/ install where you keep all of the module code you want to share between multisite installs:

$config->paths->siteModules = $config->paths->root . 'site/modules/';
$config->urls->siteModules = $config->urls->root . 'site/modules/';

My guess is you could also do the same thing with scripts and styles paths? or at least your templates path.
