Would it be possible to autoload these defcustoms?  At least the Elisp
manual states that this can be done with ;;;###autoload cookies:

,----[ (info "(elisp)Autoload") ]
|    The same magic comment can copy any kind of form into `loaddefs.el'.
| If the form following the magic comment is not a function-defining
| form or a `defcustom' form, it is copied verbatim.  "Function-defining
| forms" include `define-skeleton', `define-derived-mode',
| `define-generic-mode' and `define-minor-mode' as well as `defun' and
| `defmacro'.  To save space, a `defcustom' form is converted to a
| `defvar' in `loaddefs.el', with some additional information if it uses
| `:require'.
