Maybe, but the manual doesn't seem to mention such functionality. Can one use

customize in a way such that for different variables it runs a user-specified

conditional and reads/writes the result depending on the result? For instance,

is there way to customize the variable foo so that customize would keep track

of two separate instances of foo -- one for when a user-specified predicate is

true, and one when it's not? Then if one wanted to read/write this variable,

the `proper' one would accessed?

Anyway, I don't think that's important. More importantly, is there an agreement

that Emacs shouldn't automatically save this variable, or at least offer the

option to not automatically save it?
