True, for this case it might be simpler to use two defcustoms,
especially if it turns out that adding the necessary bits to the
Customize interface proves difficult. I've never looked at the Customize
internals, so I'm not sure how hard that would be (though I'm sure it's
considerably harder than adding a defcustom to Eshell).
Still, enhancing Customize would also (probably) solve this issue for
`erc-modules' and `org-modules', and I'm sure lots of third-party
packages would benefit too.
