How would the user make the values take effect for the current session
and/or for future sessions then. You said:
The user explicitly calls "Set for Current Session" or "Save for
Future Sessions" to do what he wants, which reduces the risk of
confusion.
What does "explicitly call" mean? That means two new buttons and two
new items in the State menu. Unless you mean to call the whole buffer
_functions_. These functions operate (in an often very confusing way)
on the whole buffer and are not suitable for use with the State button.

It's hard to judge this, especially if you want to take into account
the number of users who don't use Customize because it is too
confusing. Even in the worst case scenario, you can reset to the
standard value and start again.
Sometimes the saved value can be very complex and hard to remember.
It might be, for instance, a regexp somebody else wrote for you.
Sincerely,
Luc.
