I do not believe so. I use Custom extensively as a _browser_ and _documentation tool_, but when I see an option I want to change and save, I do so. In my use of Custom as a browser and source of info, I often click on "Value Menus". I do not necessarily reclose them because I still may want to look at them later and there is no need to close them anyway. Right now, I can browse in a relaxed fashion without being careful. I do not even need to worry about accidental edits or anything. If I want to save an option all I have to do is check that one value and TAB RET. After your change, whenever I want to change something, I will have to worry about whatever else is in the buffer. Actually, I will not, because it would really be too cumbersome. Unless there is an expert option and it actually works, I would either use .emacs or put point on the option and do `M-x customize-option RET', thereby avoiding the trouble. As long as you don't use "Save", it's perfectly safe! That is _exactly_ why I would never use the all buffer save. Very few are familiar with a concept that forces you to save each change individually. So you really _do_ believe that this is a terribly difficult concept.
