@rswgnu Noticed that the convention with * in docstrings for user option variables is not to be used for code running on Emacs 24.3 and newer. So picked it as a low hanging fruit. There are some variable that have it still and we should go over those and either convert them to defcustom or just remove the asterix in case they are not really user options. That is a bigger job so left that for now.
