Here is something that can help speed up the
tracking down of user variables in code already
written:

    (defun echo-user-variable ()
      (interactive)
      (let ((var (variable-at-point t))) ; ANY-SYMBOL
        (if (custom-variable-p var)
            (message "user variable")
          (message "something else") )))
    (defalias 'euv 'echo-user-variable)
