It seems almost too obvious to state, and probably contrary to
accepted best practices ... but ... I never liked 'customize' for some
things, in fact many things. When possible I prefer to explicitly
override defvar default values with setq, after the relevant package
has been loaded. This keeps my customizations--- with copious in-line
comments--- in startup files which are easily synced between
computers.
