Does that mean we should mark set-face-font as obsolete?
Also, looking at the code of set-face-font, it doesn't do aything else than
call (set-face-attribute face frame :font font), so I doubt it will give
much better results.  Also the docstring of set-face-font says that a nil
`frame' argument makes it apply to all frames, which I'd understand as
including future frames as well.
