[Caveat: I haven't tried the updated code.]

Yes, it's important that the fix fit well with Customize,
both from a UI/user point of view and from a coding
point of view.

Please also do make sure that `mouse-1-click-follows-link'
is effective, i.e., that it has its expected effect when
either nil or non-nil.  (I have it set to nil, BTW.)
