Yes, I think that the -c argument should be reversed from "--current-frame"
to "--create-frame".

This will bring back the default behavior to (more or less) what it was in
Emacs-22.1.

The other thing that would be nice to change is to turn -t into -nw, but
that's more difficult because currently emacsclient treats "-nw" as "-n -w"
and its option-parsing code doesn't know how to deal with "-nw" otherwise.
As a first step we can change --tty to --no-window-system, tho.
