When one launches Emacs on the console, and then runs emacsclient at a different console, should the new frame inherit normal-backspace-is-erase ? I am not sure what that question means. When you say "inherit", what do you mean precisely? Inherit from what? Under what circumstances? As far as I can see from the source code, this decision is a global decision, and it applies to existing and future frames.
