It should be fixed, but for all variables, not > by adding autoloads for individual variables. Agree. At least for now there should be a possibility to test whether a custom var could be customized at the moment. Such a function can be written easily be breaking up customize-option. This function would anyway be good to have for packages are not part of Emacs (or not searched for vars). - Lennart
