Yes.
But every so often the feature
will be mysteriously silently enabled, when some file is silently
loaded, for instance by Custom.
The variable could have three states: an active timer, an inactive
timer, and nil meaning no timer has been set. The set function could
create the timer only if the variable is nil.
That sounds complex, but anyway, the situation with timers is just one
example among many. Using custom-initialize-set or
custom-initialize-default completely solves the timer problem as I
pointed out, so there is no need to come up with a more complex solution.
Sincerely,
Luc.
