I started playing with it. I think it's a good direction. I also think
the general idea of a "customizable hierarchy of contexts to set
variable values" keeps getting reinvented in many parts of Emacs, so I
was looking at the Gnus topic/group customization code as well.
I think the right approach is to focus on the data side and leave
user-side Customize support for later. The Customize UI is just not
right to support all the use cases in a way that won't hopelessly
confuse the user. So we may have to implement special UI to make the
hierarchy visible and understandable, but considering the Emacs user
base I think that will not be a strong requirement.
From my side, in gnutls.el, I will start using the code and probably
extend it here and there. So I think your patch is a good start for us.
Thanks
Ted
