[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

I think this is a bug but I am enjoying it as a feature.

With emacs -Q, I eval "(load-theme 'dichromacy t t)".  Nothing changes, as
expected since per the doc:

         If optional arg NO-ENABLE is non-nil, load the theme but don't
enable
         it, unless the theme was already enabled.

But if I create a new frame, the frame has the dichromacy theme enabled.

If this is a feature, I think documentation is somewhat misleading.

Also, argument NO-ENABLE is ignored if the theme had been enabled in the
previous session:

emacs -Q and then eval

(load-theme 'dichromacy t)
(load-theme 'tango t)
(load-theme 'dichromacy t t)

dichromacy is enabled

Again, maybe the documentation is not 100% clear and this is not a bug, but
a limitation.

Anyways, I like very much the ability to use different themes in different
frames (load-theme-buffer-local does not apply to minibuffer nor mode-line),
which I partially enjoy with:

(load-theme my-main-theme t)
(load-theme my-theme-for-emacsclient-frames t t)

Thanks

This was a bug, sorry.  Fixed in trunk.
