Subject: M-x customize lacks search function
Date: Wed, 04 Jun 2008 03:06:39 +0800

The screen that greets the user upon M-x customize should have a
Search [________]
box. E.g., the user is looking for things that match cursor.*color,
and finds some using M-x apropos, but would like to find where inside
all the menus he should go now here to get to the M-x customize
specific ones.

Also good would be a standard BACK key.
