Applied.  Thanks.

I removed "*" and the `:size 0' portion.  Though I don't recall
clearly why I added `:size 0' to defcustoms in the past, it
might have been useful for old Emacsen (or XEmacs?; I used to be
an XEmacs user).  However, I find no particular advantage with
it now.  If anything, this makes a user be hard to find the
place of the input form if the value is an empty string.  So,
I'd like to remove all such ones some day.
