I've encountered problems 2) and 3). The latter can be fixed by loading
custom-file before org, and i had to explicitly set the value of
org-agenda-files in custom-set-variables to get the value i want.
I put all my customizations in separate files and rarely use
custom-set-{variables, faces}. It'd be nice if org offered the option of
*not* writing any customization back (i was specially puzzled by its
overwriting some of my faces, which i manage using color-theme) and be
totally customizable using elisp outside the customize interface. That's
already almost the case: all may other elisp settings for org work
nicely. IMHO, custom-set-{variables, faces} should be modified only
when *explicitly* requested by the user, either by using customize or
manually editing custom-file.
Cheers,
jao
