Simply put, using `custom-theme-set-faces' to set the face named
`mode-line' does not work. Steps to reproduce:
- Start Emacs with `emacs -Q'.
- Do `M-x customize-create-theme'.
- Initialize the theme with basic face customizations.
- Navigate to the `mode-line' face.
- Deselect the `box' property.
- Save the new theme -- I called it `mode-line'.
- Use `M-x customize-themes' to enable the new theme.
- The `mode-line' face continues to display the `box' property.
The face customization does not appear to work even after reloading
Emacs and the new theme. So far, the `mode-line' face is the only face
with which I have had this problem. Notably, customizing the face with
`M-x customize-face' and saving straight to `custom-file' works
perfectly fine. Also notably, evaluating `(load-file
"path/to/mode-line-theme.el")' also works.

That's because in 24.3.1 and earlier, default face settings were applied
along with the themed ones, so you cannot see a pure theme in those
versions. In your case, a standard spec with `:box' property is
"enabled" as well, and as the themed spec do not specify that property,
it is taken from the standard spec. To avoid that you can set `:box'
property to nil (or turn it off with "Value Menu" in customization
buffer).
In the current trunk (and it will be in 24.4) you don't need to bother
about that: if a face is themed, standard spec do not interfere.

Thanks, that seems to resolve the problem.
