For face customizations, you can use custom-save-faces instead.

> So, if I write a call to customize-set-faces or

Then keep all your calls to custom-save-* in one place.  This way,
even if you overwrite them, you can easily restore order by using the
backup of that single file.  (You do back up your init files, right?)
