  It is quite common to make a number of special variables local to each
  listener.  This is generally considered a very useful feature.

  See the macro top-level:setq-default.

  Unlike the old paper manuals, last made for release 4.3 as far as I can
  see, it is hard to just _read_ HTML-based documentation.  In fact, this
  is my biggest gripe with "hypertext" in the first place.  But I digress.
