Yes, the problem is still there.  (Tested, e.g.,
with the latest Emacs release, 27.2.)

See the recipe from emacs -Q in https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.05096

Use C-x 5 2 a few times to get multiple frames.

Set option `doremi-custom-themes-accumulate' to
non-nil.  (That's the _default_ Emacs behavior,
I believe: to accumulate themes, instead of
replacing the last one with the next one.)

Use `M-x doremi-custom-themes+' to cycle among
the themes provided by default (`emacs -Q').

See that same message for how to compare with
color themes.

I'm using MS Windows.  Dunno whether that makes
a difference.
