I think what we need is to support add-function in defcustom.
Probably we already have all building blocks to create a new
widget type using a list of functions together with PLACE symbols
(e.g. ‘:around’, ‘:before’).  Then saving such customization should
apply add-function on that list of functions in the customized order.
