Thanks very much for making etc/TODO smaller.
I have one minor criticism:

      (defcustom generic-use-find-file-hook t
    !   "*If non-nil, add a hook to enter `default-generic-mode' automatically.

That doc string should say

      (defcustom generic-use-find-file-hook t
    !   "*If non-nil, add a hook to enter Default-Generic mode automatically.

because the convention for referring to modes in English text
is to use the mode's name in English, rather than a Lisp symbol name.

There are some other doc strings and comments that need a like change.
