Repeat after me: Use options whose values are functions
are hard on our users, because they require them to be Lisp
programmers.
That doesn't have to be the case. If the defcustom's docstring mentions
several functions that can be used, and the :type widget includes them
as well, the user can decide to switch to any of them without writing
any Lisp (or having to understand the implementations).
But that was not so in this particular case.

That's easy to fix, as long as you don't have additional objections to that approach.
