For my usage, I imagine that yes the menu font would change when I
change the frame's default face. But this because my menu face is
already derived from the default face.
For the general usage, my idea (and what I start doing in my patch, see
my first message) is to query the MENU_FACE_ID. So the font into the
menus would change if the user modify its menu face.
