I think I would be annoyed if it did but maybe I'm not the intended
audience. Now and then I fiddle with certain options using Customize,
to see what they do. If I don't like the effects I might reset the
changed options or just forget about them, sure that they will be
reset when I restart Emacs. So if this "save options" command saved
all of those it would not be what I would like. Of course, if the
command was named "Save all unsaved options" then it would be another
matter.
Just my 20 öre.
