My previous suggestion was that save-abbrevs's options not change, and
abbrevs-changed would be set to 'trivially if abbrevs had changed trivially
only (only the use count).
I did misunderstand that.
this would require a lot of options for saving
abbrevs however. I think you mean to have save-abbrevs have an extra option
of 'trivially but this is ambiguous as to whether it's silent or not.
Yes, that's what I meant and what I thought you meant too. But both
ideas make sense together. A value of `trivially' for
`abbrevs-changed' could be used to implement support for this value of
`save-abbrevs'.
By the way, please keep in mind for the doc strings that we do not
use the convention of writing a ' in front of a symbol name
in English text. Our convention is to put `...' around it.
