Subject: 29.0.50; customization of faces has to be re-done for each new frame
Date: Thu, 10 Nov 2022 14:17:34 -0500

Save the following into test.el

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(custom-set-variables
 '(custom-enabled-themes '(modus-vivendi)))

(custom-set-faces
 '(fringe
   ((((class color) (background dark)) (:background "gold")))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and run `emacs -Q -l test.el`

The screen is dark (because of the dark theme) and the fringes are gold
(because of the face customization).

Now C-x 5 2 (make-frame-command) creates a new frame which is also dark,
as expected, but the fringes a no longer gold - they are dark gray as
per the theme.

If I re-evaluate the `custom-set-faces' form in the original frame (where
the fringes are already gold), the fringes in the new frame become gold
also.

However, a new `make-frame-command' creates a frame with gray fringes.

This does _not_ happen without `custom-enabled-themes'.

Apparently, the theme overrides my customizations.
I hope this is not intentional: "50.1.7 Custom Themes" says:

> Any customizations that you make through the customization buffer
> take precedence over theme settings

Thank you.

-Sam.

I can reproduce it in Emacs 28, but not in the emacs-29 branch, or
master.  Does anybody know if this got fixed?
