Thank you for sharing that!  I looked through it to see if I'm missing
anything important.  Your code is much more ambitious than the humble
patch I'm offering.  I definitely see the rationale behind your work
on `cus-edit+.el' but I think the important parts of it are orthogonal
to what I've done here.

WRT the five items above, 1 & 2 can be disregarded here because
`customize-customized-ignore' only exists in your library (and is only
necessary because of the elimination of the "changed outside of
Customize" state).

3-5 I cover differently--a new function rather than changing the
behavior of `customize-unsaved'--and this way has the benefit of being
minimally invasive (i.e. shouldn't break anyone else's code).

TLDR I still think it makes sense to merge the patch.
