    It would be good to have two different terms for the two different kinds of
    default value, so that we don't have to describe the context each time. One
    is the standard value for a user option (variable or face), where "standard"
    essentially means defined by defcustom or defface (IIUC). The other is the
    value a variable has in a buffer if there is no buffer-local value
    (setq-default).

The former is called "standard".  The latter is called "default".
I found a couple of places in cus-edit.el that said "default"
when they meant "standard", but the distinction was mostly maintained.

There is no need to reopen this issue.
