Message-ID: <200205051745.g45Hjwx01793@aztec.santafe.edu> (raw)

IMO, the custom interface is overwhelming in the sense that it doesn't
really prioritize the options.
So, if we had a command to customize a selected list of the 50 most
important options, using the existing Custom facility, would that
do the job?
Another idea: it would also be possible to sort the options in any
given Custom buffer, if we assigned them importance levels.
The more important options could come first.
Another idea: the Custom buffer could show the important options for
any given topic, and end with a button Show Less-Important Options
with which you could see the rest of the options for that topic.
Perhaps we could do that whenever the number of options exceeds a
certain threshold.
I don't entirely understand this suggestion:
[x] Abbreviation mode [advanced]
[x] Revert mode [advanced]
What does "advanced" mean here?
