• Better support for keyboard operations in the customize buffer.
• Integrate with w3 so you can get customization buffers with much better formatting. I'm thinking about adding a <custom>name</custom> tag. The latest w3 have some support for this, so come up with a convincing example.
• Add an `examples' section, with explained examples of custom type definitions.
• Support selectable color themes. I.e., change many faces by setting one variable.
• Support undo using lmi's gnus-undo.el.
• Make it possible to append to `choice', `radio', and `set' options.
• Ask whether set or modified variables should be saved in kill-buffer-hook.

  Ditto for kill-emacs-query-functions.

• Command to check if there are any customization options that does not belong to an existing group.
• Optionally disable the point-cursor and instead highlight the selected item in SXEmacs. This is like the *Completions* buffer in SXEmacs. Suggested by Jens Lautenbacher ‘<jens@lemming0.lem.uni-karlsruhe.de>’.
• Explain why it is necessary that all choices have different default values.
• Add some direct support for meta variables, i.e. make it possible to specify that this variable should be reset when that variable is changed.
• Add tutorial.
• Describe the :type syntax in this manual.
• Find a place is this manual for the following text:

  Radio vs. Buttons

  Use a radio if you can't find a good way to describe the item in the choice menu text. I.e. it is better to use a radio if you expect the user would otherwise manually select each item from the choice menu in turn to see what it expands too.

  Avoid radios if some of the items expands to complex structures.

  I mostly use radios when most of the items are of type function-item or variable-item.

• Update customize buffers when custom-set-variable or custom-save-customized is called.
• Better handling of saved but uninitialized items.
• Detect when faces have been changed outside customize.
• Enable mouse help in Emacs by default.
• Add an easy way to display the standard settings when an item is modified.
• See if it is feasible to scan files for customization information instead of loading them,
• Add hint message when user push a non-pushable tag.

  Suggest that the user unhide if hidden, and edit the value directly otherwise.

• Use checkboxes and radio buttons in the state menus.
• Add option to hide ‘[hide]’ for short options. Default, on.
• Add option to hide ‘[state]’ for options with their standard settings.
• There should be a way to specify site defaults for user options.
• There should be more buffer styles. The default `nested style, the old `outline' style, a `numeric' style with numbers instead of stars, an `empty' style with just the group name, and `compact' with only one line per item.
• Newline and tab should be displayed as ‘^J’ and ‘^I’ in the regexp and file widgets. I think this can be done in SXEmacs by adding a display table to the face.
• Use glyphs to draw the customize-browse tree.

  Add echo and balloon help. You should be able to read the documentation simply by moving the mouse pointer above the name.

  Add parent links.

  Add colors.
