Re: A few questions about desktop.el

About seven months ago, I said:

Now, either I was mistaken then or something's changed in between,
because h-c-m and desktop.el *do* have a problem.

With a simple .emacs.el like this:

;--------- .emacs.el -----------
(setq desktop-save t)
(desktop-save-mode 1)
(setq highlight-changes-global-initial-state 'passive)
(global-highlight-changes 'passive)
;-------------------------------

The steps to reproduce the problem:

 - Start Emacs.
  - Load a file (for example, .emacs.el). => It is in "-Chg" mode,
i.e., passive.
 - Exit Emacs.
  - Start Emacs. => .emacs.el is loaded, in "+Chg" mode (active)
  - M-x hilight-changes-mode RET => .emacs.el is in "-Chg" mode.
 - Exit Emacs.
  - Start Emacs. => .emacs.el is loaded, in "-Chg" mode (finally).
