Expose hidden "Save for Future Sessions" Customizations button |
Date: |

In the Customize Face buffer most users will think the "Apply and Save"
button will save their changes to a file, only to unknowingly lose them
upon exit.
Only if they read (info "(emacs) Saving Customizations") will they learn
of the hidden "Save for Future Sessions" button.
I propose the latter button be placed on the interface right beside the
former button, visible from the start.

Nothing got saved for me

Ah, so there are two different "states" for saving...
OK I'll close this bug. Customization has always been a disaster for me.
Forget it.
