Maybe I'm getting something wrong.

(progn
  (face-spec-set 'zzz
		 '((default  :background "red")
		   (((background dark)) :weight bold :background "black" :foreground "White"  )
		   (((background light)) :weight bold :background "yellow" :foreground "Black"  )
		   ))

  (insert (propertize "XXX" 'face 'zzz)))


Eval it and see default background gets applied despite it should be overriden by a spec line that matches terminal's background.
