A user definitely can change buffer (as opposed to mode) specific options. `set-variable' provides for this. The Options menu currently contains, at top level, "Truncate Long Lines in this Buffer", which is buffer-local (_not_ mode local). I don't know whether Options=>Save Options integrates with Customize or not. Yes. It saves by writing into the `custom-set-[variables,faces]' forms. There are some problems in this respect with "Word Rap in Text Modes", which saves all of the current value of text-mode-hook into those forms, which might be inappropriate.
