+   The <structname>pg_settings</structname> view does not display
+   <link linkend="runtime-config-custom">customized options</link>.

This is true until the module that defines the customized options is loaded,
but not after that. No? For example, pg_settings displays
pg_stat_statements.max after pg_stat_statements is loaded.
