So is this a new, intentional "feature"?
I presume there has been a discussion about this... because without
knowing the reasoning behind this, I'd say it was a bad call. Very
confusing to users, who, by default, shouldn't be concerned with frame-
specific faces. Note that even "save for future sessions" won't set
the face for future frames. How would I set a face through the
customize interface that is valid for current and future frames?
