** Re-bind modifiers on OSX
On mac keyboards, the command key placement works better for me as
Meta rather than the default (Super), because it's right where my
muscle memory expects a PC keyboard's Alt key.
The control keys are typically pretty terrible, too, but I find it
easier to rebind Caps Lock to Control in the system preferences (which
is a nice thing to do in other environments, as well).

* Custom settings
Store options set via =customize-*= in a separate file (Emacs stores
them in =init.el= by default).
