[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Actually... Deferring the loading of desktop-mode to after-make-frame
cannot work (unless I'm missing the point):

		  if (and owner
			   (memq desktop-load-locked-desktop '(nil ask))
			   (or (null desktop-load-locked-desktop)
			       (daemonp)
			       (not (y-or-n-p (format "Warning: desktop file appears to be in use by PID %s.\n\ Using it may cause conflicts.  Use it anyway? " owner)))))

`(deamonp)` will still be true...

I could set `desktop-load-locked-desktop' to `t'
but then I'm assuming I'll always be the only desktop-mode client on
this machine... I don't like that.

What about changing `(daemonp)' to some predicate checking if there is a
frame conencted?
