IMHO, this is _expert_ behaviour. I think that most novice users will very rarely mix and match setting some options and saving others. If he is satisfied with the current settings, he will save them ALL. If accidentally, he saves some option which he forgot he had only set and really didn't want to set, he can EASILY revert the change, either in the same emacs run or next time he runs emacs. Why don't we simply introduce a "customize-expert" option that is off by default, but can be turned on when the user gains more experience. When off, it can limit the features of the customize interface to those features most novice users will be familiar to from other interfaces. When on, customize can show you all the current features (and perhaps more, if we think it may be useful). -- Kim F.
