Sorry, pasted the wrong line.
(Yes, this indeed selects the default Set. It is easy to overlook the fact 
that every object that can have custom properties set is created with a 
default Set with the name empty.) 

The following will delete ALL of the customPropertySets for the specified 
object 

set the customPropertySets of this stack to empty 

I never needed to delete only a single customPropertySet, but I suspect any 
Set could be set to empty by using array elements to reference them.
