See GNU Emacs function `modify-frame-parameters'. You pass it an alist, not a plist. And an alist of frame parameters is what you get from function `frame-parameters'. And an alist of frame parameters is the value of user options such as `default-frame-alist'. And yes, since Emacs uses alists for frame parameters you can take advantage (or disadvantage) of shadowing frame-parameter values.
