I haven't read the code yet so I can't really answer to your question.  What
I know is what I said on
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=13476#8

Customizing and then resetting to the standard scroll-bar face failed
because the 'scroll-bar-foreground parameter wasn't updated after
resetting the attributes via face-spec-reset-face.
