The inactive mode line doesn't see the change; calling something like
switch-to-buffer will propagate it.  Maybe, it is not necessary to care
about it as long as there's a recipe how to disable this new feature.
Is it enough to add to this fragment to .emacs:

    (copy-face 'mode-line 'mode-line-inactive)

Whenever I try to improve face I use it a lot.  Admittedly, I stopped to
change the mode line appearance once I figured out these settings are
good for my needs:

    (set-face-font 'modeline
                   "-*-helvetica-medium-r-normal--12-*-*-*-p-*-iso8859-*")
    (set-face-background 'modeline "lightgrey")

At the moment I'm inclined to believe I should drop the 3D look to gain
one more pixel.

It's all archived :)
