I don't really like custom variables that try to do everything and have
complex structures. They tend to be intimidating to new users, precisely
those who would benefit the most from the custom interface.
They are also harder to use and harder to write docstrings for. Finally,
they offer no benefit over just defining N streamlined variables whose
docstrings mention each other. :-)
