Well, it depends what kind of customizations you're talking about - it 
sounds like you're talking about the ability to change the layout of the 
application's user interface.

In which case I was thinking more that applications may become 
inconsistent as a result of possible over-customizations. One could 
probably argue that a really well designed user interface *shouldn't* be 
changed by a user... I understand that you want to add the menu item 
capability at the gnome-libs level, but what if doing so simply doesn't 
make any sense for a certain program? Many small apps such as those in 
gnome-utils and gnome-games instantly spring to mind...
