I really like this and will add it to the package soon.  It's strange
that the interactive commands have no doc strings...  I'll have to add
some.

I'll merge in the documentation you wrote in the bug report to explain
the usage, and will use it in the Info docs as well.  The defcustom will
have to default to nil, I guess.  Principe of least surprise and all.
(That's too bad because stuff like this should be the default.  But
someone would complain if I made it so.)

Thanks!

Peter
