Did you see my suggestions in this message: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2024-12/msg00532.html Since we already have customization groups and commands to present them and allow users to look for the group(s) they need and customize the relevant aspects, I feel that improving our groups (which currently look not very rational or even helpful). The next step would be to support intersections of groups. WDYT?
