I do not. Any file opened any how by Emacs is invoking those variables. Please send your opinions to bug: https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=44837 by writing to: 44...@debbugs.gnu.org > .but at the same time has no idea he chose a > mighty tool, as in has no clue about programming, variables etc., That is right, I have given references. Do not expect users who obtain Emacs editor to be programmers. When user is asked anything, it should be self-documenting and it should have references to that documentation. That is why majority of actions with Emacs do have ? for help at least. Invoking unsafe variables does not even involve any help or references to manual. > then > this choice won't help neither.

That is right, but that will be picked by those better positioned few.
