I think Emacs keeps its own list of X resources internally. (I am not certain -- I never studied the code in xrdb.c carefully.) So Emacs ought to be able to tell when to consider new values. With the sort of redesign that Stefan proposed, it is surely possible to DTRT for any relevant factors there may be. It was only the amount of work involved in this that made me hesitate.
