Ah, I see why it confused me: You are referring to the first version of
the patch. This particular bit is already clarified in the second
iteration of the patch, starting at
id:"1309613471-23465-1-git-send-email-daniel.schoepe@googlemail.com"

In that case I also fully understand why you found the
customize-interface confusing. :)

Yes, that was the intention, in v2 I used a cleaner way to do that.

Ah okay, then I understood you correctly. I agree that this would make sense.
