Or, let me put it differently. I think there's no use case, with the current code, to read from a different desktop file. The use case for reading it from different directories is built-in in the current desktop.el (DIRNAME is passed as an argument back and forth), but the desktop file name is a defcustom'd variable.

There's no use case for that= . Or, let me put it differently. I think there's no use case, with the = current code, to read from a different desktop file.

The use case fo= r reading it from different directories is built-in in the current desktop.= el (DIRNAME is passed as an argument back and forth), but the desktop file = name is a defcustom'd variable.
