FWIW, I agree (tho the uncommented nature is largely bound to the UI:
it's pretty hard to provide a GUI that lets you add/maintain good
comments to the resulting customizations).

Even better (to me [and to Erik Naggum ;-)]) would be if Customize could
let you generate and maintain "normal" Elisp code.
E.g. when you change a setting, it looks for "(setq <thevar> <oldval>)"
in your .emacs file, rewrites it to "(setq <thevar> <newval>) ;Was
<oldval>" and shows you the result.
IOW turn Customize into a UI that lets you browse settings and that can
show you what code to use to change them.
