The reason the header line is nice is that it will remain on the screen even when you scroll the customize window. But of course, you cannot activate it with your mouse. But it would make sense if C-x C-s saved the settings, while C-c C-c just set them. If we don't have a header line, I don't really care whether the buttons are at the top or at the bottom. -- Kim F.
