I think bug #18725 (Say "no" to "erase customizations?". .emacs gets
written.) is a candidate for a major problem. Basically, in certain
customize-... functions, .emacs gets saved despite the user explicitly
saying "no". This is really bad, and I think it should be fixed for
emacs-24.
I have proposed a patch to the code under the bug report. May I apply
it?
