Let me try to put it another way: as I envisage the whole process1.- On startup:a) Get the startup file from [ .emacs, .emacs.d/init.el, .config/emacs/init.el ] or whatever set of files we decide and load itb) if custom-file is not nil and wasn't already loaded, load custom-file. If is was already loaded, maybe tell the user (???)2.- When saving the customisationsif custom-file is not nil, save them there else save them in the startup file whatever it isAFAIK, the only new thing is to include 1b) in the emacs code, because 1a) and 2) are already in the code (it's how emacs behaves today, right?)So someone not defining custom-file would not see anything changing (long-standing behaviour respected)Just my .2 cents, /PAOn Wed, 5 Jan 2022 at 02:01, Po Lu <luangruo@yahoo.com> wrote:Robert Pluim <rpluim@gmail.com> writes:

Agreed, and I also think that long-standing behaviour should never
change as well, even for sites that have Emacs freshly installed.
Thanks.
