Re: Custom-reset-standard has different menu names

    I believe that `Custom-reset-standard' resets the current setting of a
    preference (face or variable) to the installed (standard) setting, and
    it also updates the user's custom-file to reflect this. That is, it
    removes any saved customization for the preference.

    Perhaps this updating of the custom-file is the reason that this
    particular resetting is the only one that is not called "Reset"... If
    so, "Erase Customization" is not more clear - it can give the opposite
    impression that it just erases editing or setting changes in the
    Customize buffer.

The old name wasn't clear either.  Can anyone come up with a name that
really is clearer than either of these?
