Yes, of course. What was I thinking? I knew that well. Lack of coffee, perhaps. I think what threw me off was that, though the frame I was in had a red cursor, when I typed M-x customize-face cursor, it showed up yellow in Customize. I think there is a bug, in that Customize shows the wrong face attributes. See my previous mail for the details: default-frame-alist had red, and special-display-frame-alist had yellow. Although I was in a normal (default) frame when I used M-x customize-face cursor, Customize was shown with yellow. Note: Customize itself appears in a special frame. Perhaps that's the origin of the bug - perhaps it uses its own frame instead of the frame selected when you invoke customize-face.
