Yes, but the original issue was what semantic "get saved" should have in
Custom. Or did I misunderstand that? (setq custom-file "Y") together with
the common use of (load custom-file) gives at least me a feeling that many
would expect "get saved" to read from Y. But it is actually not defined now
of course.
