OK, but I still don't understand the problem that you're fixing. Could you
perhaps summarize it?

I use both `set-face-attribute' and `modify-face' in my code. I do not use
the FRAME parameter with either, but I do use these functions to change
faces globally.

I do not understand (1) the problem you are solving or (2) how, after your
changes, we will modify faces, that is, how we will do what we do now with,
say, `modify-face'. Could you please explain that a bit?

I have no problem with doing things in a different way, but I would have a
problem with not being able to change face attributes in some (selective)
way.
