FWIW I'd like a command in a customize-group buffer to
expand all docstrings.  When I try out a new package I often
use customize-group to get an overview of things I can tweak
in it, and it's a pain to click More on all the options and
to open them.

bug#15748 "Provide a way to hide/show all values" is for
this, but I'm now thinking that something like outline-cycle
would be great in any customize buffer.  Let S-TAB cycle
through the various states of all options at once.
