Are there any downsides to that? 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.
