The node title, within the node, is `Defining Customization Variables', which is much better. I imagine that the node name was picked because the node is a subnode of node `Customization', but that is not a good enough reason. `Info-goto-node' handles the nodes of a manual in a flat way. A node named `Variable Definitions' should cover all of defvar, defconst, and defcustom. Likewise, an index entry named `variable definition'. IOW, someone hunting for info about variable definitions should be able to get to general info about all kinds of variable definitions.
